Are there any plans to implement a Button into the App-Manager, to move the Data-Part of an app to the /ext2 Partition ?
Especially on low memory devices (like the G1) this will give us the chance to install a lot of apps without runnung to "low space on device".
I have written a very small bash-script to manually do this job, but it would be more comfortable with a Button.
move.sh
unmove.sh
