CouchLiteOS v0.2.5

v0.2.5 stops the Super (Windows) key from opening Home, lets you choose the
keyboard shortcut that does, and names keyboard keys in the on-screen help.

New

  • Choose your own keyboard Home key. Settings > CONTROLS > KEYBOARD HOME
    KEY: press A or Enter, hold the keys you want, then let go. Ctrl+Alt+H stays
    the default. A key with Ctrl, Alt or Super works anywhere, including during a
    stream or Remote Desktop session. The same screen turns the shortcut off
    (Y / Square, or Delete) or puts Ctrl+Alt+H back (X / Triangle, or F12). Boxes that had the shortcut off keep it off.
  • A KEYBOARD KEYS help page. Settings > CONTROLS > KEYBOARD KEYS lists what
    each keyboard key does in the launcher: Enter, Esc, the arrow keys, F5 to F8,
    F12 for the on-screen keyboard, and your Home key. CONTROLLER BUTTONS shows
    your Home key too, and the hints at the bottom of screens name Enter and Esc
    where there is room.

Changed

  • The Super (Windows) key no longer opens Home. A tap now does nothing in the
    launcher and reaches the app in front, as on any other desktop. Use your
    keyboard Home key (Ctrl+Alt+H unless you changed it), Guide, or the Home
    shortcut on your controller.

Fixed

  • The first-run setup footer and the APPLICATIONS help named controller
    buttons only, and one line pointed at the wrong settings screen. They now
    name the keyboard keys and the right place.
  • What's New named the wrong settings screen for the audio output choice.
    It now says SETTINGS > AUDIO.

Known limitations

  • During a stream or Remote Desktop session your Home key also reaches the other
    PC. Super+letter often does something there (on Windows, Win+H starts voice
    typing); the default, Ctrl+Alt+H, does nothing on Windows.
