  1. Do you have plans to add support for WebDAV in Vi Touch?

    Is there a way to rename your pages in the folders in page scanner. I would like to copy all my favorite recipes and separate them by catergory in the folders so I do not have to go from book to book to find them.

    Also when I try to chop them and save them they become so big they do not fit in the window, am I doing something wrong?

    I have a Mac AND a Windows PC. How do I use the iTunes files sharing section?

    Thanks!

    Sorry for spelling your name incorrectly. I’m using Internet Explorer 87, and the “Enter your comment here” text does not dissaear when you start to type your comment, so I did not realize the typo.

  5. Hello Chaiji Li. I just bought your Page Scanner App today, with the hopes to scan and store my high school yearbook as a PDF, and possibly many more books. It worked great for the first test of a 25-page elementary school yearbook, but I just finished the 276 page senior yearbook, which took several hours… the PDF file is 171645.7KB… and when I hit the arrow to send this file to myself, the app repeatably crashes. Please help? Thanks, Tom.

      Hi, Tom

      Since the PDF file is so huge, you can’t really send it through mail. It is much easier to get the file from iTunes file sharing section (You need a Mac or Windows PC to do this).

    Hi

    I am trying to extract a page from a pdf and insert it as an image. My code compiles flawlessly on texshop, but for some reason it does not work on tex writer.

    Code:

    \begin{figure}[!hbtp]
    \includegraphics{page=2}{ztable.pdf}
    \end{figure}

    Error:

    ! Package keyval Error: page undefined.
    See the keyval package documentation for explanation.
    Type H for immediate help.

    l.174 \includegraphics[page=2]{ztable.pdf}

    Can you assist me with this? Why does tex writer not link with keyval when I have the keyval files installed in the TeXinput directory?

    Thank You !!

    Just updated LaTeX Writer to 1.3 a few minutes ago and the new app will not launch, just crashes. No longer usable (iPad 1/iOS 5.1.1/32GB). Please rectify this situation. Will you be
    supporting the PGPLOTS or ModernCV packages?

    • litchie litchie says:

      Can you try to remove the app first, and then reinstall it? If you are not linked to dropbox, please backup the files first from iTunes file sharing.

      I am using iPad 1 /iOS 5.1.1 myself, it should work.

    • litchie litchie says:

      As for pgplots and moverncv, we need to do some more investigation first.

    Hi! I recently purchased your “Golden Ear” app for iPhone 4s to enjoy lossless audio and it’s really rocks!.
    Thanks a lot for creating such a awesome lossless playback app. But, as always we want more.
    I think to full fill “Golden Ear” it must need the whole lossless formats support (like .wv and .wv iso too). That’s missing!
    Well, Great app.
    Thanks a lot.

    Emu.

    Hi! I recently purchased your excellent vi editor for the iPad. Although it works very nice and sends the files by email, I also would like to see the ability to import a text file from other apps, as well as having the posibility to select among different encodings. Many thanks.

    • litchie litchie says:

      Thank you for purchasing VI touch. I plan to add Dropbox syncing in next update. It is impossible to import files from other app, on the contrary, you can export file from other app to VI touch (Open in..)

    I managed to download iDOS the second time it was offered. I just started using it and I find it to be very handy. Thank you! I wish I had the first version that allowed for file transfer. As it is now I’m able to transfer files manually with a free app called iExplore, which allows me to drag files back and forth between iPad and desktop. Is it possible to downgrade my iDOS to the older version somehow? My goal would be to be more easily transfer files that I create and update in iDOS with tools like dropbox or email. Thanks for your thoughts.

  11. Janae says:

    Good site! I really love how it is simple on my eyes and the data are well written. I am wondering how I might be notified when a new post has been made. I have subscribed to your feed which must do the trick! Have a nice day!

  12. Swen says:

    Do you plan to add support to math fonts to tex editor so that I could use mathcal and mathbb fonts

  13. such as you says:

    I want to thanks for posting this article while not the same old bias that is therefore prevalent in nowadays’s writings. This content is easy information.

  14. Gayle says:

    Fine related information! I have been looking for things like that for a time these days. Thank you!

  15. Ste says:

    tex equations is really a good app. are u plannig any updates?

  16. SonicGenX says:

    Hi litchie, I like the iDos app, the latest version 2.0.1. So, can you please publish the link download for MediaFire? TQ.

  17. nate says:

    hi litchie, i love idos. its one of the most used programs on my ipad. i was just wondering how do i change command.com in z: to a more updated version. i have legit copies of win95 and win98 and would like to install so i can try to build a linux distro for idos.

  18. abBear says:

    Hi, i got iDos v1.0 and never upadte to v2. How do i add my roms to it or how can i play other games other than digdug and pacman? Google doesnt find any answersnto it, weird! Is it u’re not allowed to disclose??

  19. Mike Cavagnero says:

    I liked and used PixelTouch, but it crashes on loading images in IOS 5. Any chance of a fix?

  20. Just a guy says:

    Hi, I have a jailbroken iPhone 4 IOS 4.0.2. I would really like to use Dospad, iDos, Dosbox.. but the only thing availiable on your repo is a beta which is unstable on my iOS. It crashes to springboard. Can you post the older versions?

  21. gregb1012@gmail.com says:

    Can u email me the code for idos so I can install on it on my iPad
    Gregb1012@gmail.com

  22. alimba says:

    Please bring back idos, even if limited.
    Also, could you create Page Scanner for the ipad or modify the current version to make it work better on the ipad? the app needs to make better use of the ipad’s larger screen and work better with the ipad’s camera.

    • litchie litchie says:

      Hi, Alimba

      Good idea, maybe we can have a universal Page Scanner in next update, though the camera on ipad is next to useless for scanning documents:)

      As for iDOS, there are several issues holding it back. So it may not be possible to see it again in appstore. JB and install dospad is a better option.

  23. Sciencematthew says:

    Please can I get iDOS I don’t have a jailbreak but is it possibible?

  24. MigMit says:

    Please, oh, please add an option to map joystick movements to numeric keyboard keys, like arrows or “Home”.

  26. Matt G. says:

    The DosBox idea is a great one, if a way exists to get Star Control II (arguably the best freeware Dos game currently available), then it should be pursued vigorously.

  27. Jake Gelly says:

    please add dropbox support to page scanner and i will buy it :)
    also can you email me when you have done it? (you probably wont)

  28. jason says:

    idos got taken down do you know why and will you bring it back
