This is great - and might be what's needed to convince me to move from my now-ancient QTE 4.4.3 to the latest and greatest!<br><br>Thanks to everyone for all the hard work on this - it's clear that Nokia desupporting QTE was the best thing that could happen to the FR.<br>

</div>I understand the concern, but when you type in a sentence (or multiple<br>
sentences) and you need punctuation characters, you're gonna need a<br>
lot of sliding ... so I would bring the most used keyboards under 3<br>
buttons as well. I'll try it, and if it clutters too much, I'll remove<br>
it again. I can always leave the code in, and just disable it in the<br>
layout.conf file ...<br>
For the buttons, any suggestions? I can take any html code ... see<br>
<a href="http://cityofstrife.net/hexcodes.html" target="_blank">http://cityofstrife.net/hexcodes.html</a>. For uppercase/lowercase, I'll<br>
use an "fat arrow" up/down (x21E7 and x21E9), but what to use for<br>
letter symbol, special char symbol and cipher symbol?<br>
In the letters keyboards, I'll add: up/down, special char, ciphers<br>
In the special char keyboard, I'll add: letters (lowercase), ciphers<br>
In the ciphers keyboard, I'll add: letters (lowercase), special chars<br>
