MISSING FEATURES:

1) DONE get pid or command name of topmost window when that window is an aliendalvik app
the pid returned by the below cmd is for `system_server`:
Code:
dbus-send --print-reply --system
    --dest=org.nemomobile.lipstick /
    org.nemomobile.compositor.privateTopmostWindowProcessId
this means that app(maps) will return false when google maps is open, for example.

NOTE: this is done, but requires a hack in lipstick QML
https://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?...8&postcount=30

2) ]keep-alive while locked without draining battery horribly (vol buttons dont wake phone up, and so sometimes the actions dont work) JUST GONNA USE keepalive-tool FOREVER

3) DONE-ISH long-press keys
just needs some clever event handling that i havent had time to implement

4) torch on/off (NOT toggle, which is already done)
probably easy to query torch state with DBUS, but if not, i could just write directly to the LED devices.
(i used to long press vol for torch, and release to turn it off, and liked that a lot)

5) multiple input devices, configuration options for input devices

6) support for optional EXACT pattern matching (have to not push any other keys before, in the middle, or after)
maybe: "^vu vu$" or something

7) configuration options for timeouts/delays/etc

8) SOLVED-EXTERNALLY OPTIONALLY disable volume button default actions, e.g. in certain apps (this would probably be completely separate from sf-button-monitor, if i can implement it)
solution:
add a dconf config item to volume control QML to optionally ignore
/usr/share/lipstick-jolla-home-qt5/volumecontrol/VolumeControl.qml
see: patch

9) new conditions: landscape, portrait

10) new action: forceClose (kill -9 pid of topmost window)

11) new action: lockOrientation

12) (optionally) support power button with journalctl mce

Great work, thank you !

If it's possible, can you add :
- condition : screen orientation
- action : screen orientation lock, force to close (kill -9) current app

Screen orientation lock could be nice with the Pro1, when the keyboard is opened. However I don't know how to do the screen stuff

EDIT : a word missing : screen lock -> screen orientation lock

would it be possible to add a feature to run something when a button is double-clicked?

thats like, the primary feature of this app. you do this by writing "vu vu" or "vd vd" or "cf cf" in that pattern

AARGHHH

i just tried for like half an hour straight to find a way to get the app name of the topmost window for android apps (lipstick dbus tells me its "system_server").

is this REALLY that hard? is there some obvious method im just not thinking of? maybe some dbus api i dont know about? or some wayland thing to get the last kb-focused window or something....

yo, i hate wayland. couldnt there be some standard way of doing this for root users? i can list, kill, send keyboard input to, and otherwise manipulate every process on the system...but i cant know which one has active keyboard focus?

sigh, here it is. if you do this, then window() condition will match window title of the most recently opened app....

the file in question is:
/usr/share/lipstick-jolla-home-qt5/switcher/Switcher.qml

Code:
