This comment doesn't make any sense.

Objective-J is an implementation of Objective-C for JavaScript. Cycript is a binding from JavaScript to Objective-C.

Objective-J is used to write applications in web browsers using Objective-C semantics and syntax. Cycript is used to write actual iPhone and Mac OS applications using Objective-C libraries from the host language of JavaScript.

The only things they have in common are that they both involve JavaScript and Objective-C, but even the specific meaning of Objective-C is different in both cases.

If you want to ask "how is this different than ", you should be talking about JSCocoa, which solves much the same need (although has different initial design decisions, as discussed on the Cycript website).

So, I actually can't "remove it" from Cydia as it isn't /in/ Cydia. Cydia is a web browser. You can type a URL into it and get it to install stuff for you from that URL. None of the URLs that come with it or that I recommend people use would do something like this. I obviously do not condone it in the slightest. But again, I can't do anything about it. Engadget has written /yet another/ poorly worded, poorly researched article, but then again that's no surprise: people really should stop reading it.

I am, in fact, working on making it /almost/ as easy as installing an application from the Market ;P. It won't be "as easy" as this type of thing requires root access, but there will be a single, self contained program, that will perform the installation (and even do it in a way that repartitions your SD card rather than putting it all into a file, so that it doesn't disrupt your ability to use the USB mounting functionality while you are using it) ;P.

That's /awesome/! ;P Future versions will have both that option and, even better, the ability to use password authentication instead (which is preferable as then you have the convenience of leaving the service usable while not having to actually verify each incoming connection).

For the record, if you middle-click it will press the lock button (which you can use to turn on/off the phone if it auto-locks). If it actually goes into suspend, though, then it is unlikely to be in a good state to even hear your commands from the computer. I'm going to fix this all in a future build of Veency.

Hey, I wrote Cydia, and I can now say that this problem was real for some users, but has now been fixed. I hope people who had this problem are willing to try again after they have restored.

A quick summary: If you used BossTool to move /Applications and then upgraded your phone to a newer firmware, you ended up with two copies of Applications, which confused my installation scripts.
