Blimkeys Bug Fix


Yesterday i emailed Gabor, the developer of Blimkeys about a certain problem i encountered. This is the email i sent and the answer i got from him


oldsap:
Hi, i know you've made this program a long time ago, and i'd like to thank you very much for this great and useful app.
One thing, when i try to set the columns to 10 and rows to 3, the characters that come out are wrong. Is there a limit to the number of columns?
Thank you for your time

Gabor:
"Hi Charlie!

The max column size is 12, the max row size is 8, the max letter/key is
8
and the max board's number is 8. I don't use dinamic memory allocation,
so I
must to predefine this values.

But, there was a bug in the source code, the program repeated the
characters
from the 8th key as you wrote.
I attached the corrected version. Maybe I left to upload it?

You can install this way:
- unzip blimkes.dll
- restart (soft reset) your PDA, and don't use blimkeys
- copy the new blimkeys.dll to your pda's \windows\ directory!
(overwrite
the old one)
- It's done.

Thank you for your mail!
Regards,
Gábor"
