The Double Tap Space Mod
1.1.1 added the "Kinda" cool feature of being able to double tap the space bar and it adding a period + a space afterwards
My question is, would it be possible for a mod to be made to switch that feature to comma + space?
I dont think i have ever used a period in a text message in my life, but i use comma's constantly
I want to know is this would be possible, and i know it would be a little while for it to be made if it is possible since 1.1.1 is so new and locked down
But i would pay money to anyone who could make this happen for me
It would be nice if it had a little toggle switch in the keyboard settings like the 'autocorrect' feature does
* Im gonna add a poll to see how many others would like this, from my point ofview everyone would, i dont see why anyone uses periods in txts, commas are much more useful *Last edited by Whoismiked; 09-29-2007 at 06:40 PM.

What I want is an intelligent function to determine if the situation calls for a period or a comma and to insert that symbol + a space.

I h4t p30pz Wh0 t4|kZ |1k3 z1S in text messages.
Having a full keyboard and auto correction/complete, there is no reason to not use capitols, periods and full words. (whadda know, that iPhone does this for you!)
I think the option of having a comma+space would be cool, but not to replace the period+place one.

Wich is why i said it should have a toggle, just like the autocorrect does
Edit:and I talk correctly when using txt, i use comma's hella more then periods
You can even look at your post, there was more comma's then there was periods (as there is in pretty much any message)Last edited by Whoismiked; 09-29-2007 at 10:13 PM.

I agree, you can only use one period per sentence but a (near) unlimited number of commas.

just a random tip that seems harder than necessary at first but if you get used to it it really helps.
if you just want to type one period and dont feel like hitting the keyboard switch option twice you can just tap it, but don't let up. move to teh period. let go, and then it will automatically bring you back to the alphabet pad!

Ya i knew that, Its works with any special character, it definatly is a nice feature, i use that pretty much everytime i use any special char
Can someone at least tell me who has the knowledge to do this? So i can bribe them to do it, i can express enough how much i want this
(I do know it gonna be a little bit, after 1.1.1 is cracked open, but thats not far from happening
)

I liked the feature when the CrackBerries came out with it. It's handy, when you're typing a long email, but I'm not going to lose any sleep over it, especially for SMS. I mean, on average people type what, 2? 3? sentences tops, and then send the message on it's way? GOD forbid a few extra taps per message...

Yeah this would be nice... But I use alot of "..." so this would be nice if you can incorporate that into the mod :-)

This would be pretty easy to do if we found the file for it, but it would be much harder to put it as an option in the preferences versus editting a file
