[Orgmode] Re: What WebDAV service do you use for syncing org files?

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 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.

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! Holger
[O] org-insert-link and partial-completion-mode incompatibility?
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?
Hi Guido, > > I wanted to install the MobileOrg app on my iPhone, but iTunes claims > that there is no such app in the Belgian App Store?! > > Did I miss something? 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. Cheers, Holger
