You are very welcome. It does sometimes feel like there aren't a lot of people out there who engage with the things that I post here.

Or maybe a better mobile option becomes apparent. Right now I'll put Kirigami 2 on ice. If someone else wants to work on this, my first attempts are still in the android-kirigami2 branch - and the new script that I added does appear to make it quite easy to produce working Android APKs, so I hope that will entice more people to play. > The greatest feature I can see missing from the mobile version is > downloading from a dive computer.

I really hope that the added script will make it easier for him to keep moving in that direction. If not, let's fix what is still not easy enough. We definitely do need to work on BTLE support, both for desktop and mobile as we now have seen the first BTLE dive computers pop up (Perdix AI comes to mind, but apparently the Oceanic VTX / Aeris 300 CS support BTLE as well). /D _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list [email protected] http://lists.subsurface-divelog.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
