Still poking at a tablet pen input method. It's starting to feel really nice. Writing 'e' and 'o' still trips me apparently XD.

I was tired of having to toggle modes, so I've removed the toggle and split the interface into three sections(uppercase, lowercase, symbols) so I can draw direction in the mode I need!

@neauoire just made me think, what is happening with potato, is it just being deprecated or salvaged into parts for porporo?

Devine Lu Linvega

@zvava potato wasn't the right way of doing this, so yeah, I doubt I'll work on it again. Porporo is just better, smarter. It's advised by a lot of the lessons I got writing potato tho, so I'm glad I did :)

@neauoire do you think you'd reimplement the 'top bar'?

Devine Lu Linvega

@zvava mhmm that's a good question, I might yeah. I haven't needed it so far but I might.

There's something I've been meaning to test for a while, it is accessing an application's menu from the outside by using the manifest field in the metadata. Might be a good place to put the idea to the test :)

@neauoire bar application called potato, configured in porporo to always be invisibly connected to the focused window. boom. life is a perfect circle

@zvava you've convinced me, I'll try that tomorrow 🥔

@neauoire a tiny bit of history, aligned to both this tablet stuff and the data flow stuff… the rand corporation created a system called GRAIL that was a data flow visual programming language whose primary input method was tablet gestures.

youtube has a demo film (from 1969)

@zens yeah it's really interesting, it's why my repo in the OP is called grail :)
