Re: [O] Full org-mode on unrooted Android
dear Carsten and org-mode list, while you have discovered (too early!) ZShaolin having a working version of Emacs that could decenlty run org-mode on an Android, I've been caught in a kind of guilty complex by reading your mails and not having time to fix things. I must admit, as I have admitted elsewhere, that the inclusion of Emacs was still experimental in ZShaolin 0.7 (and that's why is not a 1.0). I've always wanted to have Emacs org-mode usable on a tablet myself and I consider that an ultimate goal of this development. In 0.7 There was an issue with TMPDIR, easy to guess and repair, and then one with the elisp files which are not included in ZShaolin, rather shipped with another app I'm going to depend upon for the time being.

And yes, I *do* have an sdcard... Reinstalling dos not work. In ZShaolin I'm building almost everyting with my own toolchain, but for the Emacs build I'm trusting Zielmicha which IMHO has made the the best Android build around. For the Emacs user, my app adds to it a sane shell envionment and terminal to work. But when you start emacs in ZShaolin there are no elisp files: these must be installed into sdcard/emacs and this can be done by simply installing com.zielm.emacs: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zielm.emacs If both ZShaolin and this app above are installed, Emacs in ZShaolin will start and autoload org-mode. Some things can be still made better, to start faster for instance, like removing most language support since Google's bionic lib has removed NLS and wide char support (they've been so short sighted to support locales only in Java...) Of course there is still a missing piece, that is ZShaolin itself :^) since you need to buy it or build it, which isn't trivial at the moment.

Re: [O] Full org-mode on unrooted Android
I also have a bunch of *.map files in that directory. And am also on Nexus 7 (2013). Oddly, on this tablet Charles and I /don't/' have an sdcard, since there is no physical slot for it. (I assume the directory is so labeled for compatibility, and ---in case it helps--- points to '/storage/emulated/0') You actually have an SD card and get no 'emacs' directory. I wonder if the /emacs directory got installed to another place, or if it somehow didn't get installed at all. I'll revoke my bug fixed comment on the bug I filed on the developers' bug tracker http://bugs.dyne.org/, and reference this conversation. Oddly, just now that server is unreachable to me. I did just send a short note on their web-contact form https://www.dyne.org/contact/, where you can also find their IRC channel, if you want to contact them. I have since had a little more trouble with org-mode on Zhaolin using 16pt font. (odd cursor jump after column 70). I don't seem to have the problem with 20pt font (which limits the terminal size). Please scold me if HTML email and links are unwelcome. I haven't been active on this list in a few years, and forget the protocol. I hope this eventually works well. I may try a full linux as instead, but org-mode on non-rooted Android is useful.

[O] Full org-mode on unrooted Android
hi all, apologies for breaking the threading as I just subscribed to the list and thanks for trying out ZShaolin :^) I am happy to see some of the experts here find it useful. The Emacs included in my APK is experimental and so far comes without elisp files, which you can add from your own collection, inside /sdcard/Emacs. then Emacs in Zshaolin should work without problems and with all loaded extensions (one could also simply install the Emacs for Android app which provides them). I'm trying to find the time to update the app and include a working Emacs out of the box, so far without much success because of lack of time and other priorities: ZShaolin includes a lot more software and currently I am working on a modular install system, sort of package based, somehow minimal enough to fit the style of the app. There are also other priorities like UTF8 support in the terminal (which is an older version of JackPal's)... Overall ZShaolin is not complete and still somehow far from 1.0, however for using Emacs and Orgmode should be enough to add that directory in the sdcard, I use such a setup myself, with some difficulties because of the Esc key in Android and such things as the software keyboard popping up which was mentioned, for which installing the null keyboard app is a possible solution. I'll keep in touch via this mailinglist, so welcome troubles :^) and suggestions. And many thanks Carsten and all devs for orgmode: rocks. ciao -- http://jaromil.dyne.org GPG: 6113 D89C A825 C5CE DD02 C872 73B3 5DA5 4ACB 7D10 NEW! superseeding old key C2B68E39 due to expiration date signature and revokation history on pgp.mit.edu - plz upd pgpE_HQ1yP54F.pgp Description: PGP signature

Emacs for Android didn't work for me at all, and seems not to be currently

Re: [O] Full org-mode on unrooted Android
Scot,
I haven't notice much impact on the battery life but, given all the
services/demons typical ubuntu system launches, there must be some
consequences for the battery for sure. I do leave it running in
background (by not exiting terminal).
I also noticed some keybindings that don't work (M-arrows and M-RET
in particular) but their ESC- counterparts work fine. It looks like
that might be a problem of the Android Terminal.

(unrooted) Android using an app called 'zshaolin'. You can either download
the app from the Google Play store for approx $3 or download the toolchain
and source from their website and compile it yourself (which I haven't
tried).

(for source, follow links to their FTP site, about 2/3 down the page)
Emacs is version 24.1.50.
The following needs to be added to the .zshrc for org-mode to work:
export TMPDIR=${HOME}/tmp
They only claim 'barebone' Emacs, and I haven't tested extensively to see
what that means, but so far it works for me.
I have no affiliation with the people at dyne.org, just happy to have
working portable, org-mode. I use a Bluetooth keyboard with a 7 tablet on
Android 4.3.
It looks like compiling in this case may not be for the faint of heart, but
if someone tries it, perhaps they can post any notes to the list here.
Cheers,
Scot
