Can't wait to see this in Extras-Devel. Looks like a cracking widget

hi,
Ive used the sms counter for some days now. works great.
but when you sent messages longer then 1 sms, it'll count it as 1!
still many thanks for the app! hope you can get this error out of the way!

"but when you sent messages longer then 1 sms, it'll count it as 1!"
Oh... but of course. I am getting the number from the database which stores even long sms messages as one entry only. My bad.
I guess I can check the total message length in the database and calculate the real number of messages using that additional piece of information.
Does anyone have information on the multi-part SMS length numbers?
I know one message is 160 7-bit characters. But at what point does the 2 messages (for one long message) become 3 messages (and so on)?
Next version should be in the extras-devel repository this week. I'll fix at least this and hopefully I can also add a settings panel to change the period start day.

I did not make any changes in the UI, I just wanted to get this first test version out. next step is to get this in the maemo repository, make the suggested UI enhancement and allow the user to change the counter period change date...
Features:
Displays total count of SMS messages (both sent and received) and count of the SMS messages for the current month. The counters are updated every time a SMS is sent or received. Update button updates the counters also, but in general you should not need to use it, it is there for just my testing purposes (I will get rid of it in the future :-)
to install
(you need to be able to gain root access for example through root) - and note the as this is early, very untested version of the application and working with command line commands could be potentially dangerous for your device, please be careful, know what you do with the command line commands and backup the device before installing...
copy the file on the device
In xterm and as root, go to the folder you saved the file in
dpkg -i smswidget_0.1.0-1_armel.deb
If you get any error messages (for example if you have not installed any python applications or python desktop widgets before) try to fix the dependencies with
apt-get -f install
After successful installation you should see the widget on the home screen, if not, reboot the device. If still nothing, please report to me...
