Hola All,

  Just to let you know that as part of the process of adding 
self-scanning to the Tekla keyboard on Android, I have been making some 
significant changes to the codebase so I recommend any new developments 
are stacked on (pull from) the self-scanning branch to minimize merging 
conflicts:
https://code.launchpad.net/~jorge-silva/meadl/self-scanning

  The main changes involve the creation of a new class: 
TeklaHighlighter and a series of methods for triggering actions on the 
TeklaIME via broadcasts (some methods were inconsistent in the way they 
were triggered so the code has been changed to only use broadcasts).

  In terms of architecture, it was my original intention to have the 
SwitchEventProvider be the only source of switch inputs (either from the 
Shield or from any other source like the handset's own sensors), 
however, it was easier to implement the full-screen switch added as a 
secondary feature from the TeklaIME itself, so for now, it will not be 
available outside of the IME.

  Let me know if you have any questions or concerns...

cheers!
Jorge
