Thanks to Jack87 for help lots of help testing and feedback.

Controls

Controls were designed with the idea of JHBN forming a diamond and when thumb is on J at 45 degrees holding phone comfortably you should be able to reach all action keys easily without the need to take thumb off the keyboard.

Gesture controls: Gesture down= Next Weapon (Impulse 10) Gesture up= Previous Weapon (Impulse 12) Hold Gesture= Strafe mode where joystick left right is strafe

Screen Controls Just as displayed in picture with Joystick Look&Move

Blue: I= Turbo Forward U= Turbo Strafe Left K= Turbo Strafe Right

Red: J= Fire H= Strafe Left N= Strafe Right B= Jump Sym= Fire

Purple: Only work during Action Keyboard mode Note- "Orange+Key" means you hold down orange key and press corresponding button @= Toggle Between Action & Normal Keyboard (For typing in console use etc.) Q= Menu/Esc '= Quick Load (Orange+L) _=Quick Save (Orange+,) W= Left arrow S= Up Arrow Z= Right Arrow A= Down Arrow %= Console (Orange+I) Quake-pre-Config.png

Notes

Discussion on the topic can be found Here
Video can be found on WebOS-Internals youtube channel
-Keep in mind Quake does not have a "Use Key"
-You can customize Keyboard controls in the options menu but they get reset every time you start the game. Pressing some buttons will make the game think its a different button ie. i= shift j= up. This is normal as long as you know what you are pressing.
--Beta builds are avaliable at http://wdtz.org/files/sdlquake . There are no guarantees on betas, but I'll try to keep them stable, and they'll get you extra features early. Just copy it over the existing binary or run "wget http://wdtz.org/files/quake.sh -O- |/bin/sh" from terminal.
