Topic: Help adding offline widgets with my low skill level
I used songmaster's method to download a couple of widget files to try to add to Zurk's firmware. (Used wget, even that was new to me.) They seem to be in the right format, eg a clock widget produced a 167 kb file called C3274E1A-050E-11DE-B045-001B24F07EF4. But now I have no idea how to integrate it into the firmware. Any simple suggestions? I did download and learn to use EditPad, and can see how to modify some of zurk's included widgets. But as for adding widgets, it may be beyond me. Hopefully, I'm just missing something obvious.
I know zurk's work is a good surival plan, and he came up with it fast, and it works. Has anybody else come up with anything other than zurk's solution? I seem to remember maybe Duane and Doktor Jones mentioning things a way back. (But I know a lot has changed since then!) I'm hoping for a "Chumby on a stick" with maybe some kind of graphic interface for changing things- probably impossible Well, at least I'm learning a lot thanks to this forum. Thanks to all who are still here helping. I sure hope the Chumby servers keep pumping away!
