Anyone know of a simple text editor for our phones? Seems like it ought to be a no brainer with all the keyboard devices out there now... I've been searching for 15 minutes and all I can find is a python app called EasyEdit which I can't get to work on my E70. Sigh.
 
Jon -- if you check out the Python development for S60, there's a great little python text editor available. You just have to install Python, then install the text editor...

All info can be found here: http://opensource.nokia.com/projects/pythonfors60/

*edit* just read your post fully, lol, did you install Python first? You need to install that before you install Easy Edit.... no reason it shouldn't work!

I did, but I'm not sure that I installed the right files, or everything properly.

I installed ????"PythonForS60_1_3_20_3rdEd_selfsigned.SIS" (there were several to choose from). and the "easyedit.sis" which is supposed to be fore s60v3. Interestingly which I installed easyedit.sis, I got a warning that it was incompatable with my phone, but it went ahead and let me install it. But when I run it, it terminates immediately.

thanks - J
 
Yeah, Python apps always give you that incompatibility warning, so that's not the problem... it looks like you installed the correct version, but a reinstall may make it work better.

you can't open specific files in the 'notes' app.. Its really limited. Jon try reinstalling easyedit, its a great little app!

If you go here you can get the Python framework itself (you have to install this first), and then if you go here you can see the apps that are available. That second link I gave you is the Nokia Python s60 Wiki, with a ton of useful information.

There are some really cool apps available through the Python framework, definitely worth checking out!
