Mention in the lists if the repo is deprecated or not.
Something like :

• 🔴 CUPS Printing - Script to print directly to reMarkable Cloud from CUPS using rMAPI.
• ✅ reMarkable_syncthing - Syncthing on reMarkable.

Hello,

Do you know if there is any possibility to use a dark mode for reading and writing [white words on a black surface] for rM and rM2?

Thank you in advance

The contribution guidelines are good, but it doesn't make sense for them to apply to the repo names. In Python, modules are case sensitive and usually lowercase. This is how my projects appear on PyPi (remarkable_mouse, remarkable_keyboard, remarkable_entware, remarkable_pdflets).

It's also unclear how to apply this rule to projects like remt, rmapi, rmsync, rmtabletdriver, etc.

I recommend we restrict these guidelines to the description for each submission and let the authors decide how their project is stylized.

It would be nice if there were a centralized place to chat about the reMarkable and reMarkable development. The reMarkable subreddit has a Discord, but that doesn't jive with FOSS.

I propose the creation of an IRC room (e.g. #remarkable on Freenode) and linking it in the readme to encourage discussion surrounding the reMarkable and reMarkable development.

Might also want to advertise it on Reddit and the reMarkable wiki.

Could there be some kind of table which list the compatibility of the projects for Remarkable 1 or 2? So RM2 knows which projects aren't ported yet and if a new project is added to which device it's compatible with. 🙂

Instead of other-repos we could call this repo a curated list of awesome reMarkable software.

See: https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome

We need a better way to categorise the items on the list. Device Tools is disleading and generic, since most of the items on the list are tools to manage our reMarkable device.

I'd start by sorting out stuff that runs on the host machine and stuff that runs on the tablet. Then if they use ssh or the web interface to communicate with the device.

What do you think?

Hi,
Maybe you can add it to your list.
It's a cloud based app that allow you to manage your files and folders, download/upload files, etc.

It would probably make sense to use something like this to automatically confirm that all the links are still valid: https://github.com/dkhamsing/awesome_bot#validate-pull-requests

Thank you; this is a great source of information and it will motivate people to create more tools.
One suggestion I'd make is that a wrapper for a specific language that calls reMarkable API would most accurately be called an "SDK", at least from a developer's perspective. An API would be if someone offered another cloud service that then talked to reMarkable's.

I have three links that could go on your awesome list.

• Adding a microSD card
• reMarkable's github
• reMarkable's sources

It seems most of these tools have stopped working with the latest version of the RM software (v3). Maybe go through and mark the ones that work with v3?

Hello friends - I inadvertently overwrote the Remarkable Desktop app on my Mac with a version that does not run with the current OS> I'd like to go back to an odler version, but don't see any of htese archived on the remarkable website. Does anyone know where I can find old versions of the official OS?

Thanks

I wrote a set of scripts that I run on my server to automate some stuff for the ReMarkable.
Have a look and let me know if you find it useful!

Would any one be able to produce an upside down version of the UI ?
so we can work / draw / write with the buttons above the screen rather than under the screen right below the hand, where you don't want them ?

I have two links that could go on your awesome list.

• Adding a microSD card
• reMarkable's sources

Having verified remouseable works on the reMarkable 2 and is so easy to use, both wired and wirelessly, I thought you could add it to the 'Other' list.

The only thing you need to know for RM2 is that you will have to add this option in the command line call:
--event-file /dev/input/event1
So the whole command should look like this:
remouseable --event-file /dev/input/event1 --ssh-ip="192.168.1.XXX:22" --ssh-password="yourpassword"

The binary is in the release section, you then rename it to remouseable, and make it executable with chmod +x before going ahead with the command line call.

Hi,
I recently re-ported plato to the reMarkable.

That port uses a more recent version and also has some additional finetuning that the first port didnt't have like:

• More fine grained refreshing
• Selection of partial refresh quality
• Wacom Pen support
• Selection of input type
• All the features that were added to the official plato repo in the last 2 years.

As there is already the plato port from darvin, I'm not sure whether I should create a PR to replace the link to his repo or add a second plato entry (and how should I mark/name that?).
Personally, I don't want to remove darvins port since he was the first to do it and inspired me redo it since I wanted to see what changes came in the last 2 years and also had a great opportunity to learn more rust and probably find a UI-Base to create a Mango-Client on.

What is your opinion on this, @darvin ?

I didnt see this depot until I looked into reading .rm files,

When remarkable software version hit 3.5 they removed the ability to upload files with the ip interface, instead requiring an app which pissed me off so i instead upladed thru ssh and modified content and metadata files, and ensured no automatic updates. Since that goes against my use of the tablet - all i care is to upload pdfs, fast. and i dont need any new user accounts -

I had to make it simpler for my kid yesterday so I built a mini project with console scripts - tested on ubuntu but i have to set it up for a mac as well

• pdf_to_remarkable filename.pdf "visible name parent"
• backup_remarkable local_folder
• remrkable_file_graph local_backup_folder

Github allows tagging projects with topics. It would be useful if we could establish a standard topic for all reMarkable related projects to differentiate them from the remarkable Markdown editor. Maybe remarkable-paper or remarkable-tablet? Would be a good start to tag all projects within this organisation accordingly.

Once this is established, maintaining the list in this repository should become somewhat easier.

I suggest to add another warning that a Factory Reset will only delete /home/root/* and especially that it will generate a new root password.

For example:
Factory resetting through xochitl will generate a new root password and it will only delete the files in /home/root/. Be careful not to brick your device by removing alternative launchers this way.

Background: I've made the unpleasant experience of bricking my rM2 by running a factory reset. I thought it would be like an update, bringing the whole filesystem back to the original state.

However, rm2fb service remained enabled but the binary was deleted as it resided in /home/root/. This way, the GUI cannot boot and the password is inaccessible without the necessary hardware to access the OTG mode.

I read the warnings beforehand and this would have avoided a lot of trouble for me.

Does anyone know any way to adjust the pressure sensitivity? - I find that I need to press far too hard for the ballpoint pen, I would like to increase the sensitivity.

We might add this python library to the list, it is hosted on gitlab.

Hi, I wrote a planner (calendar) for the remarkable tablet.
Would it be a good idea to add to your repository?

https://github.com/PepikVaio/reMarkable/tree/main/reMarkable_paid/re-Planner

Thank you

Sorry if this isn't the right place for this, but I was wondering if anyone is working on syncing two (or more) remarkable screens across a network. The idea is to write on one remarkable and see the result on the other remarkable live, and vice versa.

As a weaker alternative, is it possible to write on a remarkable by writing on a laptop screen? e.g., draw a line on the laptop and see the result on a connected remarkable live. Using projects like @Evidlo's remarkable_mouse it is possible to write on a laptop using remarkable, but I'm looking for the inverse to this. Eventually the goal would be to connect to tools like https://excalidraw.com so multiple people can collaborate on remarkables, laptops, tablets, etc.

This would be like collaborating using a whiteboard, but remotely with each person having a remarkable.

I'd like to propose adding remarkable_entware, which is a modified install script for the Entware software repository.

Hello,

I developed command line interface to turn a whole website into a book. It also has the option to upload the resulting epub to the reMarkable.

You can find it at this address: https://github.com/lapwat/reCatchable

I would like to add it to this awesome list. Can I do a PR?

MDView is a desktop viewer application for Windows, Mac and Linux. The MDView source is a part of Sciter SDK.

Hello,

Could it be possible for left-handed player to switch from the pen to the eraser with the right button in zen mode? (since it is my free hand when I write)

Otherwise, this mode is so great! I use it all the time.
The new button to easily switch from 1 recent document to another also is very useful. Now when I read an article, I can put its notations in a notebook.

Thanks!

PS: Have you considered assigning an action to the third button in zen mode? For me it could be nice to open the "recent file" window you created. Another suggestion would be the undo button (but it would not be as useful as I can erase easily in zen mode).

My tablet is currently running 3.9.3.1986, and unfortunately many (most? all?) of the available packages support only 2.x versions of ReMarkable. It'd help tremendously to know what my options were at a glance, rather than having to chase into each project's docs. In particular I don't know of a launcher that is compatible with v3, and toltec officially doesn't go past v2 yet.

I'd even be willing to consider rolling the tablet back to v2 of the reMarkable package if necessary -- if there's a documented process for that and if there's a way to make sure it can't accidentally be updated into failing even if someone "helpfully" flips the Automatic Update switch.

Anyone know if someone's working on keyboard support through the microUSB port (and, I suppose, a simple text editor app)?

Hi, I would like to add the following application to the list of available tools:

http://jgrasstechtips.blogspot.com/2018/07/do-you-own-remarkable-this-could-help.html

It is free and open source, so it should fit.
