Once that is in place, apps for different platforms can be made, maybe re-using some of Richard's code. All these apps will be able to use the Emacs integration. - Carsten On Sep 8, 2009, at 7:43 PM, Sven Bretfeld wrote: Very nice, congratulations.

Depending on the format of the files that the iPhone/J2me/etc. app needs, would it not just make sense to use git/svn/etc as the asymmetric protocol for synchronizing things? Or is this too simple?

2009/9/8 Richard Moreland r...@ncogni.to I've been working with Carsten on a free iPhone app for Org. Absolutely lovely. I've been waiting for this for long. Once we feel the basics are worked out, we will solicit a request for beta testers and feedback Please count me in. thanks, -- ajd. ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

Re: [Orgmode] iPhone app for Org view and capture
Hi Peter, You nailed nearly point-for-point the current state of capturing notes in the app (as of today, after the demo video was made). Thanks for your comments, I hadn't considered displaying the last sync time. That will indeed be handy. As you imagined, you can operate entirely offline (that was my goal in the first place, after all). You can view your outlines, add as many notes as you like, and sync whenever you care to. You can edit/delete notes if they haven't been synced yet. There's also a handy indicator on the bottom of the screen letting you know how many notes aren't yet synced.
