I've got my Android rooted and have a ssh server running there. 

Then I use the following hooks to run the scp command to copy the files
back and forth.
 
(setq org-mobile-post-push-hook  '(lambda ()

(shell-command 
"scp ~/org/mobile/*.org magic_home:/sdcard/stage")

))
(setq org-mobile-pre-pull-hook 
'(lambda ()
 (shell-command "scp 
magic_home:/sdcard/mobileorg/mobileorg.org /home/hw/org/mobile")
 )
)

So my org files never leave my network and all traffic is encrypted. 

There is an ftp-server available for Android phones that should let you
do similar things, if you didn't root your phone.

I have a HTC Magic, and use the Cyanogenmod ROM. There the ssh daemon
dropbear is included. It is just a matter to set it up.

A google search on "$YOUR_PHONE android dropbear" should tell you, if
this sshd daemon is running you your device as well.

Did you try to suppress the xml declaration in the exported html?

#+OPTIONS: org-export-html-xml-declaration (quote (("php" . "\"; ?>")))

At least MS-Word and Chromium don't seem to like that xml version line
and refuse to render the document.

I use mydrive.ch,. I have the index.org file at the top-level directory
there and have on my android phone the URL in the Connectivity settings
"http://webdav.mydrive.ch/index.org";

I remember having to fiddle a little until I got it working - but
nothing bad.

you can always set up your own webdav server. 

I briefly used nginx (nginx.org) a full blown web server, there is an
apache module for serving the webdav protocol and there is pywebdav 
http://code.google.com/p/pywebdav/

Even in your own private network? 

My setup was to have the webdav server only visible in my home wlan and
then sync the phone against that.

One open source project that implements a pretty impressive interface to
exchange is http://davmail.sourceforge.net 

Maybe you can get hints on how to deal with the ideosycrasies of MS
coding from there.

Unfortunately I cannot use this, and your proposed solution, since my
Exchange server is behind an RSA-Token-"secured" gateway.

I'm planning to use the org-outlook protocol 

http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/org-outlook.el

even if this means that I need to have an Outlook-instance running. 

Good luck!

[O] org-insert-link and partial-completion-mode incompatibility?

2011-06-22 Thread Holger Wenzel
Hi,

in emacs 23.3 with the org-mode release_7.5-421-ge734e I experience an
incompatibility between org-insert-link and partial-completion-mode.

org-insert-link in an org-mode buffer results in:
"Symbol's definition is void: t"

The trace back looks like

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-function t)
  t(-1)
  org-icompleting-read("Link: " (("http:") ("https:") ("ftp:") ("mailto:";) 
("file:") ("news:";) ("shell:") ("elisp:") ("doi:") ("message:") ("file+sys:") 
("file+emacs:") ("bbdb:") ("bibtex:") ("docview:") ("gnus:") ("info:") ("irc:") 
("mew:") ("mhe:") ("rmail:") ("vm:") ("wl:")) nil nil nil tmphist nil)
  apply(org-icompleting-read ("Link: " (("http:") ("https:") ("ftp:") 
("mailto:";) ("file:") ("news:";) ("shell:") ("elisp:") ("doi:") ("message:") 
("file+sys:") ("file+emacs:") ("bbdb:") ("bibtex:") ("docview:") ("gnus:") 
("info:") ("irc:") ("mew:") ("mhe:") ("rmail:") ("vm:") ("wl:")) nil nil nil 
tmphist nil))
  org-completing-read("Link: " (("http:") ("https:") ("ftp:") ("mailto:";) 
("file:") ("news:";) ("shell:") ("elisp:") ("doi:") ("message:") ("file+sys:") 
("file+emacs:") ("bbdb:") ("bibtex:") ("docview:") ("gnus:") ("info:") ("irc:") 
("mew:") ("mhe:") ("rmail:") ("vm:") ("wl:")) nil nil nil tmphist nil)
  org-insert-link(nil)
  call-interactively(org-insert-link nil nil)


Deactivating partial-completion-mode let me insert the link with no
problems.

Then it looks like org-insert-link doesn't call org-completing-read at
all.

Using the org version that comes with emacs 23.3 doesn't exhibit this
behaviour. 

Kind regards,

Holger





Re: [O] MobileOrg app not available in the Belgian App Store?

did you go to,

http://mobileorg.ncogni.to/

?

It looks like it's currently not available in the app store. At least in 
Germany I don't get it as well.

And with that OS running on the smartphone there is little chance to get the 
app installed through a different channel.

I wish I had my android back, unfortunately I work for an employer that 
constantly chooses mediocre tools.
