them into them, saving them after if there were any changes. Tested
by playing a two-device game all the way through fetching messages
after every move.
object) rather than allocating a new array in the C heap -- for the
DAWG data of a dictionary. This can use up to 5% of the java heap for
huge dictionaries, but I'm hoping it fixes a problem reported by a
user of the large German dictionary that seems to involve allocation.
If I'm reading correctly, as long as I stay within 16M (24M or more on
newer devices) I'm sure to get my memory in the java world while it's
less a sure thing in the JNI world (where in addition linux's
aggressive overallocation is used, meaning I'll fail when I try to
swap in memory on write rather than get back NULL from malloc.)
bytes to read from downloaded dictionary file -- because available()
will not always return the full size. I suspect this is why a German
user is crashing when using the very large 2_15 German dict.

opening saved game and passing messages into it from pipe then saving
it when done. Works, but requires gtk so far.
swapping to view of the current player's board if the current player
is remote -- because then won't be able to swap back to own view until
it's your turn. Fixes annoyance in multi-device game on Android.

threads -- by allowing me to really not be running multiple threads.
Tested with the usual script.

colors but only empty cell color for now. Remove prefs for whether
cell letters follow user colors (they always will) and the new one for
frame color -- it'll always be dark grey.

reverse; and remake the board arrow in white if the background is a
dark color. It's now possible to configure various colors so that
black empty cells looks good. Next need a single control to do it.

Implementation required passing XWActivity into BoardView so the

that's not supported for ADDs. Can't remove columns either, so at
some point I'll need to migrate to get rid of accumulated cruft.
