== FAQ for the maemo port ==
=== How do I exit the application? ===
Press CTRL+backspace to invoke the application switcher, click [X] to close it or tab an empty area to keep it running in the background. Use the "home" button on n8xx devices, Or, if you have an N900: Install Shortcutd and then you can press the camera button to get back to the dashboard.

=== How do I tell the tag database to ignore a folder? ===
Create an empty "database.ignore" file in that folder. Once this folder is there, all sub-folders will be ignored as well. A file "database.unignore"
does the opposite.

Example: place a "database.ignore" file in the root directory ("/") and a
"database.unignore" in /media/mmc1/Music. In this way, only files under
/media/mmc1/Music will be considered and everything else will be ignored.

=== How do I go to the main menu from the WPS (while playing screen)? ===
Tab the rockbox logo on the bottom left and click on the open folder icon in the context menu. From there navigate your way up to the main menu.
