* Features to add:
+ - if GPS time is more than 1 minute and less than 1 hour different than the
+ system time, automatically sync it
+ if GPS time is more than 1 hour different than the system time, show a
+ "SYNC" button that will sync it if pressed
+ - stacked notifier, with stacked modal dialogs
+ (notify sms received during phone ringing during alarm)
+ - aux acks the topmost dialog
+ - custom ringtone per every notifier (stops ringtone of modifier below,
+ saving the time offset of playing so it can be reloaded and resumed)
- log
+ + load log entry for showing it
+ - flash aux when there are unacknowledged log entries
- write data to disk as log happens (to have at least partial logs if power
is cut)
- more detailed GPX data (dop, elev..)
hardcoded in zavai config
+ GSM status on main screen (with messages while coming online, and
operator, power and so on)
- - log and refuse incoming calls and messages
+ + log but don't pick up incoming calls
+ - play ringtone when someone calls (not useful to pick up, but just to
+ notify a call is there)
+ (but stop ringtone if aux pressed in the meantime, to avoid annoying
+ people)
+ - log incoming SMS messages
+ (first as a standalone app quick to compile)
+ - pick up phone call
+ - phone call applet (pushed when picking up)
+ - buttons for dtmf
+ - button for hold
+ - button for hangup
+ - icon in main screen (to go back to applet if going around zavai during
+ phone call)
to "move" the GSM device to my laptop:
socat FILE:/dev/ttySAC0 TCP-LISTEN:12345,bind=192.168.0.202
socat TCP:192.168.0.202:12345 PTY,link=/tmp/gps,raw,echo=0
-
- alarm
+ play sound at alarm trigger
- - leave expired alarm on screen until acknowledged
- (alarm status icon that also brings to alarm menu)
+ + leave expired alarm on screen until acknowledged
- remember alarm names (on request, maybe with an add feature) and how
often they are triggered, and show them most frequent first
- show active alarms and allow to delete them
- audio notes
- record audio notes, logging start and stop so it gets an associated GPX
- shortcut icon in main screen
- - check gobject introspection and dynamic loading
- - there could be a basic loader core that just dynamically loads bits as
- available/needed. Only the battery icon and calendar can be loaded on a
- laptop, while on the moko one can also load the power menu.
- Different bits can effectively work as plugins, to be there or not.
- Alternative plugins can be loaded based on different technologies, too (a
- gpsd satellite monitor, or a fso satellite monitor).
- zavai does not look good in landscape mode
- replace menus with a widget taking a list of actions, which then lays
them out according to the screen size
- ical on libical-dev
- vcard+index file
- lua functions to read things
- - zavai-calendar as a separate app
- zavai-contacts as a separate app
- calendar
- next30: don't update if not shown currently on the notebook
