== Introduction ==

−
One of the features I liked about my old Treo was the character counter built-in to the messaging application. I thought it would be useful on the Pre, so I modified the messaging application to show the current character count. I made this a separate page from the other modifications because it requires many code changes. Maybe the other messaging modifications could be rolled into this page as well.

== Procedure ==

Run the following commands:

−
''In this example, I have the patch file located in my home directory under '''patches'''''
 
−
<source lang="bash">
 
−
cd /
 
−
sudo patch -p0 --backup-if-mismatch < ~/patches/charcounter.patch
 
−
</source>
 
−
 
 
−
This is what you should see if it ran properly:
 
−

These modifications will require LunaSysMgr to be restarted. A rescan will not work. After you've run the commands above, run one more command:
 
−
<source lang="bash">
 
−
pkill LunaSysMgr
