vsh_cale is a plugin that allows you to display pre-set schedules or messages on the screen based on the current time.

Installation

Copy vsh_cale.prx and the vsh_cale folder to ms0(ef0):/seplugins/.

Then, add the following line to vsh.txt:

ms0:/seplugins/vsh_cale.prx 1

For PSP Go add this line instead:

ef0:/seplugins/vsh_cale.prx 1

Once you restart your PSP, it will be activated.

User guide

msg.txt

This plugin manages a month of message in a single file (msg.txt). The text must be written in UTF-8.

Create files named msgXX.txt (where XX is from 01 to 12) inside the vsh_cale folder. For example, msg05.txt refers to May.

The format is as follows:

[XX]
*Good morning
*Hello

XX represents the day (01 to 31). In the example above, “Good morning” and “Hello” will be shown on that day.

Each line from the to the line break is displayed as a block. You can set as many messages as you like.

Please make sure there is a line break at the end of the text.

Use half-width characters for symbols like [ and *.

Kanji characters are generally not supported. There are some sample files included for reference.

Count down

The countdown feature displays the number of days left until a set date. This feature becomes active starting from the previous month of the current month.

Set it in the msg_cd.txt file. The format is as follows:

[XX.YY]message

Where XX is the month (05 for May), YY is the day (13 for the 13th), and the message is what you want to display.

You can set as many messages as you want. Don’t forget to add a line break at the end. Example:

[12.25]Christmas

If today is December 10th, the message “15 days until Christmas” will be displayed.

Please refer to the included msg_cd.txt file for more examples.

Available fonts

The following characters can be used for display:

　!"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~
