New Input Method Demo for AFKIM W.I.P.! |
Listed in: Homebrew Applications, News, Homebrew Demos Tags: psp homebrews

Danzel, the author of AFKIM (Away From Keyboard Instant Messenger), has been working on a new OSK (On-Screen Keyboard) for easier & faster input in this typing-massive program. After some discussion in the forums with our warm-hearted users, he finally worked out a decent solution for the OSK.This solution was inspired by the input method in Gran Turismo 4. Basically, the input pad is divided into 9 blocks, and on each of the blocks, there are 4 directions, each mapped to a character, and can be selected with the face buttons on the right side of the PSP. The input routine of a character is simple: tilt the analog stick towards any of the 8 directions to select a block, and then hit a face button to input the letter you want.
Here are some more details of the input method:
Controls:
To-Do:
D-pad Left/Right will be move cursor left/right, allowing for fixing mistakes easily etc.

Oh, and there are a few problems with using my accounts in AFKIM:
There is a space in my original AIM ID ( ), when i try to create an AIM account the text after the space is not added, which causes the login to fail.
I am not sure if the fault lies in AFKIM or the BitlBee network this program uses, but periods (.) are not recognized and this results in a failure to create an account.
Yeah, i know, I have weird account names, but they seem to work with everything else. Anyway, if possible, i would appreciate if these issues were corrected, because I do not want to create new accounts with "proper" characters to use this program correctly.
