Intro

Make KDE Connect remote keyboard better, especially for termux!

A toggle button is added to KDE Connect remote keyboard, which switch between original mode and non-original mode.

• In non-original mode, which is default,
  • Enter key works as expected, no need to be bother by ctrl-j any more.
  • Ctrl-C works as expected. You can esaily interrupt the running programs now.
  • Ctrl-V clipboard works. You can paste your linux's content to your android device.
• In original, everything is the same as original KDE Connect Android App.

If you only install enhanced android app, but do not install enhanced linux app, only Enter key can work, Ctrl-C & Ctrl-V rely on enhanced linux app.

KDE Connect - Android app

(Some) Features

• Shared clipboard: copy and paste between your phone and your computer (or any other device).
• Notification sync: Read and reply to your Android notifications from the desktop.
• Share files and URLs instantly from one device to another.
• Multimedia remote control: Use your phone as a remote for Linux media players.
• Virtual touchpad: Use your phone screen as your computer's touchpad and keyboard.

All this without wires, over the already existing WiFi network, and using TLS encryption.
