Thanks for the pointer to GnuRoot.  Could be useful to have on my Nexus
7.  The keyboard you describe on your blog post is also very
interesting.

My solution to the problem of a truly mobile org (and gnus) was to buy
myself a little OpenPandora palmtop computer and install Debian on it!

With Lil'Debi, I had an Irssi-Connectbot shortcut that would connect to
the running Debian, attach an already running screen session, and switch
to the emacs screen. I don't yet have an equivalent shortcut for
Gnuroot. My first thought is just to leave a screen session with Emacss
running in it all the time, and use the notification to swich to
it. Then use org-capture.

 P.S could you share your color scheme from the screenshot :)

If you have access by ssh to a computer that is always on, then I
recommend leaving an emacsclient open and using JuiceSSH of
ConnectBot for editing your org files on the go.


Or, as is increasingly feasible in the last couple of years, running
Emacs on your mobile device. On Android, GnuRoot is a quick and easy
solution for running Emacs along with git, ssh, hg, and anything else
you might need for your org-mode workflow, and it doesn't even require
a rooted device (I prefer using Lil'Debi for running Emacs, but it
requires a rooted device and a bit more commitment).

With a real Emacs on my device (recent screenshot [here][1]), I can
just keep my hg-based syncing workflow that I'm used to from multiple
desktops, rather than adding a new and more complex mobile syncing
workflow. I'm not disparaging the MobileOrg-Android app, it looks
great, and works great given the MobileOrg protocol it has to work
with, but it's just not what I want to work with.

Well you can do that with MobileOrg... sort of. Once you edit and 
save a change, synchronize in your phone and then pull from your 
computer (org-mobile-pull). From (info (org) Pulling from 
MobileOrg):


Some changes are applied directly and without user interaction. 
Examples are all changes to tags, TODO state, headline and body 
text that can be cleanly applied. Entries that have been flagged 
for further action will receive a tag ‘:FLAGGED:’, so that they 
can be easily found again. When there is a problem finding an 
entry or applying the change, the pointer entry will remain in the 
inbox and will be marked with an error message. You need to later 
resolve these issues by hand.


I do not understand when cleanly applied is the case, but my 
experience is that resolving these issues by hand is the most 
likely outcome. Even simple edits in the text of an entry in my 
phone generally result in errors of synchronization. Note that 
besides adding a comment of when the file was changed in the 
mobile, the local file does not change. Also you can see the 
differences in the files in the from-org-mobile.org file (or 
whatever you set the org-mobile-inbox-for-pull variable to).


Because of this limitation, I am better off just adding simple 
captures on my phone as remainders to do something in my computer, 
even adding information to a certain file. Then, when I 
synchronize in the phone and pull in my computer, the only file 
that changes is from-org-mobile.org, I open that buffer and use 
org-refile to send things to the right place.  Save all org 
buffers, org-mobile-push and repeat.


I you have access by ssh to a computer that is always on, then I

Advance Capture is Android only, not on my iPhone version. On iPhone, you
cannot add sub-headings. You can type it out as much as you want with **
and ***, but you'll need to do some editing on the desktop side. Those
modifications could be made automagically when the desktop auto-detects

For iOS, it says:

I don't do the other direction (tablet to computer). Syncing has caused

[SNIP]


 Anyone using MobileOrg?

I have used it off  on for a couple of years. Unlike what seems to be the 
majority here, I primarily 
use it for data capture -- capturing time/date stamped notes(which it works 
great for), data capture, and so forth.
Unfortunately the issues with time stamps defaulting to 00:00 and the lack of 
property support have
made it difficult to do what I want (capture glucose readings, insulin, carbs, 
etc) without substantial 
post-sync processing. Maybe one of these days I'll get around to it.

I use the iPhone version, via WebDAV. For exactly two things:
capturing TODOs and having my todo list at hand when I need it. It
works pretty well for these two tasks, gladly.

Best regards,

2014-08-07 Thread Jacob Gerlach
This keeps coming up, and while the answers are there if you search in the
right place or ask the list, I wonder if there is a better way.

Would it be feasible to include some sort of test function in the elpa
version of org that checks for the correct installation conditions and
throws an error if org is already loaded?

If someone would point me in the right direction, I'd be happy to take a
stab at implementing it.

 I use it all the time, but the Android version. I do not think that it
 is a dead project, at the end of last year there were quite a few
 updates.

 I generally use it to read my org agenda and TODO list in my phone, to
 automatically transfer the org agenda to the Google calendar and to
 make captures in my phone that I later organize into the proper file
 and heading in my computer. For those three tasks it is a five star
 application.

 I still think that it is far from being org-mode in your phone, but you
 should not see it that way. If you want to something that allows
 complete org functionality in your phone you are better off using
 something like JuiceSSH and connecting to one of your computers.

Not looking for complete org functionality in my phone -- just a
reasonable ability to edit org outlines while I'm on the road.

Did you look at the docs?
- https://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/wiki/Documentation

Unfortunately, looks like his images are borked at the moment. It's
been a while since I've used it, but you're saying there's not an
intuitive way to add a new heading? Can you just do ** something (or
similar)?
