• Learn more about PNDs

    • Yes, sortof. I've written a script for geany. Port it up here and review existing documentation. Provide it as an example if there's nothing good.
  • Hell, I want to be able to make file associations to a PND.
    • Doable.
  • Learn about editing to fix categories. Most are retarded.

• Template:HideableNotes is being used in USB compatibility list and probably elsewhere. Common.js needs to be updated to implement this functionality.

    • Basic specs should be summarized on the first page.

  • Ungh, write a script?
  • One guy suggested (from 2005?)
    1. get a list of all pages with specialAllPages
    2. save that list into a text file
    3. replace tab characters with newline (e.g. with sed) giving a list of all wiki pages, each page in a separate line
    4. paste that list into special:export
    5. ensure you save the XML, not the HTML representation

More personal todo

• Firefox is horrifically slow.
  • It is said that a zrom will fix this. Update to a more recent beta to have that.
  • It is said that a swapfile will help.

• Is there a port of zsh on the Pandora?
  • Maybe port it myself.

• Research more deeply into lxde. It needs to be spruced up so I can replace the default desktop environment.
  • where is the openbox config? Right now I have to

    \openbox --replace

    Check appdata.
