Re: [O] Agenda in MobileOrg for Android
Hey guys, I'm one of the maintainers of MobileOrg for Android. We've worked really hard to try to implement as many of the features of org-mode as we can and make it comfortable to use for the majority of people. A couple of points: - Originally we were just storing the org files and parsing those on demand instead of using a database. This proved extremely cumbersome when we wanted to add more features, and it really did not scale well when people had very large org files. We made a decision a while ago to switch to a database almost exclusively for this reason, but there were a lot of other smaller reasons that also made it worthwhile. - The reason we do syncing the way that we do is to fit into org-mode's org-mobile-* concept. Keeping multiple sets of plain text files in sync with emacs in the loop is no simple task. The org-mobile-* functions were already defined and well used when I started writing the Android port of MobileOrg. It may be suboptimal but currently it is the best and easiest (from the development side) way to keep a remote device and an instance of emacs in sync. I'm actually not even sure if the org-mobile-* routines are even maintained anymore. The synchronization problem is not as easy as just overwriting the files, however. - If you have issues and you don't tell us then we have no way of helping you and the problem might not go away. We try to stay on top of showstopping issues for our users (we have an email address and a bug tracker linked to in the app store) unfortunately some folks just leave a 1 star review and uninstall and never contact us.

Well, I didn't know about the existence if that list;). I'm using MobileOrg and enjoying it in general. I find it terribly useful and not especially cumbersome. The initial setup was a bit of a trek for me, because I don't have access to dropbox where I live (mainland China). Ultimately, because of unreliable connections to Ubuntu One, I ended up running my own WebDAV server locally and syncing at home over the WLAN. Otherwise, the only thing I had to adapt in my org/emacs usage was to schedule appointments (C-c C-s) instead of using timestamps for them (C-c .). I'm actually not crazy about that -- I'd rather use timestamps -- but it does work. (Come to think of it, I should propose that as one of the 1.0 issues... or check if it's changed since the last time I tried.) Items with scheduled or deadline timestamps appear in the Android calendar, and there is a preference in MobileOrg to attach reminders automatically. (One remaining point here -- another 1.0 issue -- is that creating a new node in MobileOrg with a schedule or deadline doesn't show up in the phone calendar until after syncing. I'll bring that up on the M/O mailing list.) I find that creating new nodes and minor editing of existing ones is not at all inconvenient. I don't see a big issue for the workflows that Marcin subsequently identified as being critical for this kind of app. They're already there. hjh As I wrote in my other email, I'll give it a try - but I'm very much tempted to try to write my own implementation, for the sake of learning.

OTOH, one argument *against* a database (as opposed to parsing text files) might be exactly preserving the formatting etc. of files (of course, with all the syncing stuff this is not important anyway). Certainly at the beginning it was easier to rely on our file parser and we tried to stick with that for as long as we could because in some ways it is just easier! We ran into some really nasty problems as we went along, though, and the further we got into our desired feature list the worse it became simply relying on that file parser. I was initially very skeptical about going the database route but it is easily one of the best decisions we have made with regard to refactoring of the project and it has enabled some of the great features we have today. That's interesting. I would be very glad to learn what might the pitfalls of just overwriting files be; it may be the case that just overwriting would work well with *my personal* use pattern of Org-mode, and that would be why I don't understand MobileOrg's approach. So imagine this... in the morning you synchronize you org files to your mobile device but then make a change in one of those files and forget to push it up to your mobile. Later in the day you make a change to the same node, or even somewhere else in the file while on your mobile device and then push that file up. In the evening you get back to your computer running emacs and pull your remote changes in. What do you want to happen? Should the one still on your computer that you last changed this morning take precedence? or the one on the mobile device? The answer is probably that you want to merge those changes... that is something that emacs can do, but as is the case with most patch-work it can't always do that in automated fashion. That's why the org-mobile-* functions exist. Now it can be argued that there is a better way and I'd probably agree with that statement but it's not an easy problem to solve. Here's another case... if you are editing a file in emacs and the file changes outside of emacs what happens? emacs doesn't like it at all... so you need some sort of built in emacs mechanism for being able to merge changes in a safe way, and it needs to not surprise the user when that's happening. These are the kinds of issues we are all struggling to solve in one way or another but the general consensus is that just overwriting is the worst of the possible options, even if it is technically the easiest. * Yes, I did uninstall, but I've reinstalled MobileOrg again after reading this thread. I'll try to set it up again. I installed from the Google Play; is it better to use the github repo? It says 0.9.7 in the release notes on the wiki, Google Play says it's 0.9.8, and maybe it would be better to use master or even 0.9.10 (looking at the branches on github)? Where do I find the info about installing the bleeding edge version from github on my phone (I'm quite new to Android, as I mentioned.) Google Play is always up to date... usually we'll only post an updated changeset on github if something major has changed, if it's just a bug fix then you probably won't see it mentioned. If you can't access Google play, as mentioned in the wiki, you can always find the latest and past release here: http://matburt.net/files/MobileOrg/ * I did not leave a one-star review; I guess I'm too lazy for that, but also it would be a bit unfair without further investigation of my problems. I didn't mean to suggest that you personally did... but it happens a lot more than I wish it did. We also get faulted a lot for the perception of complexity of the way the we have to handle synchronization but as I've mentioned above... it's a little more complex than just pushing the files to the device or pulling them off the device. * I am very busy these days, but I'll try hard to start using MobileOrg and (if the problems I had persist), I'll try to report them on MobileOrg's mailing list. In fact, my problems were twofold: firstly, syncing didn't Just Work™ (sometimes I got errors on MobileOrg, sometimes in Emacs), and some of the UI choices *did* suck. As soon as I find some time, I'll try to describe exactly what I mean by this, so that either it could get improved or I could get convinced that it's my usage that sucks (which is obviously possible, especially given my lack of experience). Yep... the only way we know that it sucks is if people tell us what sucks about it. UI/UX has been an iterative process where we have to take feedback from our users. It's a real challenge to build a UI that works for the most people and we want to make the most people happy.
Re: [O] Dropbox integration suddenly stopped working with Mobile-Org

Re: [O] MobileOrg for Android question about calendar integration
Hey Stephen, glad you like the app! As long as that calendar is set to sync then it will pull them into the web based Google Calendar service.

Tom: We directly integrate with the calendar service on the android device. You can find documentation here: https://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/wiki/Setting-up-Calendar-Support The gist of it is this: 1. create a calendar in google cal (you can do this on the web and it will sync the empty calendar to your phone) 2. go to mobileorg's settings and choose that calendar and make some of other choice in the calendar section 3. (Optionally) select the clear your database in MobileOrg settings. MobileOrg only looks at newly synced content to determine what to add to the calendar. Clearing your database will let MobileOrg re-sync all files. 4. Sync and we will automatically put those items into your chosen calendar (and will continue to do this on subsequent syncs). By virtual of it being a Google calendar it will automatically get synced up to google's calendar services on calendar.google.com Sven: I'm adding a feature request right now to will allow you to trigger a capture directly from tasker/locale and to have a widget that is just the icon and will trigger the capture interface. ... but the old scripting method should work.

[O] MobileOrg Android 0.8.0 Released, many new features!
MobileOrg for Android has gone through a lot of changes recently. We've added a lot of great features that users have been asking for and fixed some big issues that have been bothering people. If you have tried MobileOrg in the past and have difficulties with it or it didn't have a feature you wanted then I hope you'll give it another try. Some of the great new features: - New Storage System (org content is now stored in the database) - Search Support - Android Calendar Integration (with reminders) This will also allow you to sync your org schedules and deadlines into a Google Calendar. - Synchronize over SSH/SCP Password only, looking to implement key-based auth in the future - Locale/Tasker Plugin Trigger a sync action from any conditions - Self-signed ssl webdav certificates Intelligent handling, will also warn you if the certificate changes - Edit tags - Capture only mode - Complete UI revamp - Spanish translation - Improved synchronization system - Improved edit and capture modes - Full documentation in wiki You can find more release information on the wiki: https://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/wiki We've also written more complete documentation including screenshots: https://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/wiki/Documentation Henning Weiss has been instrumental in this release, he implemented a lot of the nice features you see here. We are still in active development and appreciate your feedback.
Re: [O] MobileOrg for Android 0.8.0
Hey Sven, glad you like it! 1. Calendar sync only looks at new items as they come in. So anything that's on your device already will need to be rey-synced to pick up the changes. The easiest way to do this is to use the Clear Database option under the settings menu. After doing this you can re-sync your files and it will re-process your SCHEDULE and DEADLINE items into the calendar. 2. The storage and edit handling aspect of MobileOrg has been completely rewritten. It is now much safer to edit and capture files than in the past. However, we still aren't editing files directly since org-mode in emacs still wouldn't know how to handle it. Hopefully in the future that will change, but for now at least... we've made it safer from the MobileOrg side. 3. Absolutely... it's already a feature request: https://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/issues/146 So hopefully we can have that implemented in the near future.

Re: [O] MobileOrg Android
Hi Nathan, I'm the maintainer of MobileOrg for Android. Have you read the org-mode documentation for MobileOrg? http://orgmode.org/manual/MobileOrg.html#MobileOrg That's a good place to start in figuring out what MobileOrg expects of org-mode, and also what org-mode expects from MobileOrg. The synchronization modes refer mostly to where you stage your org-mode files. The outline mode will work in the upcoming version of the application. You should definitely read the org-mode documentation about MobileOrg and I think that will give you a pretty good idea of how synchronization is handled from both sides.

What do I put in there? Is this setting affected by the other Synchronization settings? 4) What does Sync actually mean? Is it like rsync where it copies the latest file, or does it attempt a merge? What happens if you have new stuff in each file? Does DropSend asking you which one you want, or provide a diff tool?

Re: [O] mobileorg android refuses to syn with mydisk.se
Unfortunately this is a known critical issue which I have had great difficulty in solving: https://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/issues/22 https://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/issues/22The workaround in the case of mydisk.se, to say nothing of whether this would be acceptable to you, is to use the non-https version of the mydisk.se webdav system. This is actually the first I have heard that mydisk's https has issues with Android's certificate system. I suspect there is some final solution to this problem, but I'm still working on it... I'd recommend adding a note to that bug I just posted above with the details that you have listed here and when I close it (hopefully for the 0.6.0 release) you will be notified of it.

Re: [Orgmode] Mobileorg for Android: slow sync
Hi Jordi, we do seem to be having a slowness issue with the Dropbox API. I'm working with the Dropbox developers to see what could be causing that. I usually split large projects into their own files, you can configure which files get considered for the agenda by examining this section of the org-mode manual for MobileOrg: http://orgmode.org/org.html#Pushing-to-MobileOrg http://matburt.net On Tue, Dec 28, 2010 at 4:41 AM, Jordi Inglada jordi.ingl...@cesbio.cnes.fr wrote: Hi all, I am learning to use Mobileorg for Android these days. I find the application extremely useful. I am using Dropbox as a staging area and everything works (push/pull).

I was wondering if this can be due to the size of the org files and the number of nested outline levels. For example, my work.org file has over 10,000 lines. Does anybody have any similar experience about this? Any guidelines on the way of splitting large files? A way of not pushing all the agenda files to the staging area? Thank you very much.

[Orgmode] MobileOrg Android 0.5.0 - Now with native Dropbox support!
Merry Christmas to all MobileOrg Android users... I am pleased to announce the 0.5.0 release of MobileOrg for Android. This release includes support for Dropbox which is the single most requested feature. I actually finished writing the code for this a few weeks ago, but it has taken a little while for the Dropbox folks to approve it for release. This release also includes some bug fixes, although I have not yet managed to get a handle on the SSL bug if the CA is not recognized by the Android OS. I'm planning this for the 0.5.1 release Also included in this release is some basic scripting for calling the Capture interface from outside of the application, see this URL: https://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/wiki/Scripting for an example of how to use this from the Android Scripting Interface (now called SL4A) You can either download directly from the market or find a direct download link to the APK on the wiki (for those who don't have access to the Market): https://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/wiki There are some really great features coming in the near future, including better support for capturing notes with TODO, Priority, and Tags and support for editing the body of an Org entry. I'm also working on a UI overhaul that should make things more attractive and easier to use.

Re: [Orgmode] Re: MobileOrg Android 0.4.5
Hey Gour, it's hard for me to recommend a device to anyone since they are usually based on regional availability and personal tastes. You should know that MobileOrg works exactly the same on all devices from Android 1.5 - 2.2+ and, unless things are going to change dramatically, I wouldn't expect it to work any different on 2.3+ There are some things that I really like to have... like a physical keyboard, and I require the ability to root the phone and have the option of installing whatever ROM I see fit.

I have an original Droid which is an amazing phone, even a year and half after purchasing it. I'm currently having an issue with it where I seem to have lost touch sensitivity on the rightmost edge of the screen that is a few centimeters wide... it doesn't prevent me from sliding to unlock or anything like that, but it does keep me from hitting some of the rightmost keys on the soft keyboard... it makes me really glad I have the hardware keyboard now. http://matburt.net On Fri, Dec 10, 2010 at 12:31 AM, Gour g...@atmarama.net wrote: On Thu, 9 Dec 2010 13:31:53 -0500 Matthew == Matthew Jones wrote: Matthew Hey Gour, it's hard for me to recommend a device to anyone Matthew since they are usually based on regional availability and Matthew You should know that MobileOrg works Matthew exactly the same on all devices from Android 1.5 - 2.2+ and, Matthew unless things are going to change dramatically, I wouldn't Matthew expect it to work any different on 2.3+ That's nice to hear.

Re: [Orgmode] MobileOrg and Voice Capturing (Android)
Hi Sven... that's a nice one, you might could add that to the scripts
section of the MobileOrg wiki.
Pretty soon the Capture interface will be extended to allow settings tags
and other things on captured notes... once these are in place I will extend
the CAPTURE action to also take these values as intent params.

Alright guys, I've gotten this to work I've posted an early build of
MobileOrg that supports this here:
http://matburt.net/files/mobileorg-debug.apk
basically, you need to emit the action: com.matburt.mobileorg.CAPTURE
it takes an extra intent value called txtValue which will
pre-populate the
text display.
I was using the script for some days now and did all my capturing this
way. It is completely stable and reliable on my HTC Magic with Android
1.6. I see no hindrance for a release.
import android
droid = android.Android()
message = droid.recognizeSpeech(Capture New Note).result
a = droid.startActivity(com.matburt.mobileorg.CAPTURE, None, None,
{'txtValue':message}, False)
Is there a way to enlarge the 'extra' intent with some standard string?
It would be nice to have a TODO keyword and a TAG inserted
automatically. If you are like me, you tend to forget refiling the items
of from-mobile.org regularly. An automatic TAG insertion could help to
remind yourself that there is something new that needs to be cared
about. I use to give a TAG :MIT: (Most Important Things [of the day])
and have a respective Agenda View that I review several times a day. If
newly captured items could appear in this list, I would never forget
about the newly captured tasks. To my regret, I don't know anything
about Python and its syntax, but I'm sure that the 'message' variable
can be extended easily (what I have tried did never work).
As a workaround I have written a simple shellscript for a Cronjob that
starts Conky whenever there is something new in from-mobile.org. So my
desktop reminds me to refile the new items. Maybe it is of some interest
for anybody, so I give it below.
Thanks again for your nice work.

Re: [Orgmode] [MobileOrg] Specify files to be sync'ed
Hey Markus, http://orgmode.org/manual/Pushing-to-MobileOrg.html#Pushing-to-MobileOrg If you configure org-mobile-files to contain just the files you want copied over, then that is all that will be synced during an org-mobile-push http://matburt.net On Tue, Dec 7, 2010 at 7:43 PM, Markus Heller helle...@gmail.com wrote: Hello list, I'm wondering if it is possible to specify a list of files for use with MobileOrg, as opposed to having all agenda files sync'ed. In case you're wondering why I would like to do this: I'm working for a company, and I cannot put confidential information on a public webserver (I know Dropbox is encrypted and I can encrypt my org files). I'd like to be able to just have one file with appointments etc. and one file with TODO items, nothing else. Is this possible? From looking at the org manual, it doesn't seem like it.

Re: [Orgmode] MobileOrg and Voice Capturing (Android)
Alright guys, I've gotten this to work I've posted an early build of
MobileOrg that supports this here:
http://matburt.net/files/mobileorg-debug.apk
basically, you need to emit the action: com.matburt.mobileorg.CAPTURE
it takes an extra intent value called txtValue which will pre-populate
the text display.
This will be included in the next release of MobileOrg, but if you guys
could give it a try with that debug build and make sure there aren't any
glaring issues that would be much appreciated (there are some other cool new
features in there too, like colored todo tags). I plan on providing a way
of launching this speech recognition capture interface if I can find a good
way to do it but in the meantime here's an example Python script that works
with SL4A/ASE:
import android
droid = android.Android()
message = droid.recognizeSpeech(Capture New Note).result
a = droid.startActivity(com.matburt.mobileorg.CAPTURE, None, None,
{'txtValue':message}, False)

Re: [Orgmode] MobileOrg and Voice Capturing (Android)
Hey Sven, here's some thoughts: MobileOrg Android already supports speech to text in that, you can go to capture a new note and click the mic button on the soft keyboard and start speaking. I don't see that it would be particularly difficult to integrate this in a larger fashion. There could be a button on the capture interface that would let you start it automatically. You could also create (or extend the existing) Desktop Widget to include a button for capturing a note and/or capturing a note via spoken word. Also... given that you had a button to activate the speech to text without having to pull up the soft keyboard... you could write another application that calls MobileOrg's Capture activity with that mode enabled. http://matburt.net On Sun, Nov 28, 2010 at 2:10 PM, Sven Bretfeld sven.bretf...@gmx.ch wrote: Hi together TextToSpeech has made our lives easier, especially for car-drivers like me.

[Orgmode] MobileOrg Android 0.4.5
For those interested, I have released MobileOrg Android 0.4.5 to the Market (search for MobileOrg) and for direct download here: http://matburt.net/files/mobileorg-release.apk New features for this reldease include: - Now Supports editings and synchronizing TODO and Priority changes - Obey checksums.dat this should make synchronizing a lot faster - Rework the UI and show more information about each entry (including Priority and Due/Scheduled date) - Close some bugs The big new feature is being able to change TODO states and Priorities and have those synchronize back to emacs. For 0.5 here is what is planned: - Implement Dropbox and a generalized synchronization API to make it easy to develop modules that will recognize other storage mechanisms - Support editing Title and Body - Completely Revamp UI - Better document Display - Search support - Implement Widget preferences and extend the Widget functionality I know that a lot of people are most interested in Dropbox support so that is what I am focusing on right now. There is already some limited Dropbox support by using the Android Dropbox app to pull the files onto your SDCard and then use MobileOrg to synchronize them but this is a very manual process and not ideal. I also feel strongly about completely revamping the UI, it could look a lot better and be a lot easier to use. As always, if you find any bugs feel free to report them directly to me or use the bug tracking system here: https://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/issues If you need any help or have any questions you can ask here or send me an email directly. ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.

[Orgmode] MobileOrg Android 0.4.1 - Initial support for Dropbox and SDCard Synchronization
Hey folks, I've released MobileOrg 0.4.1 to the Market (find the link here: http://wiki.github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/) The one big change here is that MobileOrg now supports synchronizing files that are stored locally on the sdcard (instead of requiring a connection to a webdav server). This should also support, at least initially, those of you who would like to use Dropbox. Here is an example Dropbox workflow: * You've pushed your files into a directory called org/ on your Dropbox share * With the Dropbox Android client you download your org files (with the defaults, this would download the files to /sdcard/dropbox/org/) * Open MobileOrg and in the Settings screen select the SDCard Synchronizer, then click on the Configure Synchronizer Settings option and enter the path to the index.org file (in this example: /sdcard/dropbox/org/index.org) * Go back to the main screen and hit Menu and then Sync Capturing notes will create a file 'mobileorg.org' in that same directory for pushing back into emacs If you just have your emacs configuration push to your sdcard when you have it mounted then it is even easier, though you'll need to remember to unmount the sdcard from your computer before synchronizing. Right now you have to manually type in the path to the index.org file. There is a way to integrate starting an external file browser (such as Root Explorer or OI File Manager) that I will integrate into the next version, but I wanted to give you folks this feature as early as possible. I'm still working to integrate the Dropbox API into the application, but it is a little more involved and requires that they review the application before I can deploy it.

Re: [Orgmode] MobileOrg for Android...issues
There are certificate issues with some versions of Android that affect connecting to an SSL webdav server... what version are you using? There's no way to manually copy the files and parse them just yet, there was some work done on this on Dushistov's branch at: http://github.com/Dushistov/mobileorg-android but this isn't clean enough to import into the main codebase and is several months behind my current HEAD. In order to support synchronizing from sources other than webdav I have had to overhaul the way that files are parsed and I'm doing this as part of the effort to edit/change org file entries (see my commits from the last 48 hours). Once that has baked out then I will modularize synchronization and import the code needed to synchronize from other sources. 73, Matthew W.

MobileOrg Android does attach a timestamp to the note (similar to what the iphone version does, just below the headline) but anything else you want as part of the heading you do have to type manually. I haven't yet published a roadmap because I've been on this frenetic pace to try to get close to feature parity with the iPhone version. I'm currently working on giving you the ability to change TODO states... this is a bit of a challenge because of how I store each of the org files. Richard's iPhone version actually reads the contents of the file into a database (I think? Or at least... some other data structure) which lends itself well to the org-mobile-push model where an updated heading just gets pushed into the mobileorg.org file.When I wrote my implementation I had not fully grasped that concept yet so I just store the file and parse it on-demand as you drill down into your file's contents. In order to support editing files and changing TODO states, I need to switch to Richard's model of storing the components that make up the file instead of trying to parse it on-demand. Once I have this finished I plan to release the Beta, and at the same time push the application into the Android Market (still free and open source, mind you) as well as release comprehensive documentation.

Re: [Orgmode] Re: MobileOrg for Android starts to become really usable
With regard to the note capture display, I'm not sure how I feel about this... I like having the save button on the page because it reduces the number of clicks to save the note which can be huge if you are just trying to quickly jot something down. I do, however, need to fix it so that the Save button is always visible.The thing about this particular Activity display is that the text box is always fixed to some percentage of the display... so that the save button would never be off the page but rather the Text box would scroll if you had too much text in it. I may consider adding the save button to a menu once I add more options to the Capture screen (like adding a TODO flag, or Tags) but I think it's most intuitive if the save button is on the display mainly because you can't miss it, some things about Android happen in the background so that if you navigate away from the page it automatically saves the contents... but that's not how this capture page works (and I don't know that I would want it to automatically save if you hit the back button) this allows it to fit into the workflow and makes it obvious that you have to hit the save button to accomplish the save action. These are just my thoughts. As I bake out the Capture system I will certainly revisit it if the flow works better to have it under the 'Menu' action. 73, Matthew W.

I think I've seen other android apps keeping some buttons visible whether the keyboard is or isn't displayed. If I might comment --- one of the worst things about Android applications, IMO, is the way they are confusing about whether menus should be displayed in page, or invoked by the menu button. I'd urge you to avoid the on-page display in favor of the menu button. If you stick to that the user never needs to remember to scroll down to find the controls and there are just too many ways for the on-page display to be rendered either hard to reach or completely inaccessible. This problem is made worse (especially by contrast with the iPhone) because you don't have full knowledge of the screen dimensions. So I'd suggest that if a button is important (save, send, schedule, etc.) that you make it reachable by the center menu button.

Re: [Android] [Orgmode] Force close with MobileOrg Android 0.2_alpha and development snapshot
Looks like this might be a bug trying to write your files out to
subdirectories it looks like I'm not trying to create the subdirectories.
If you put your files in just the root directory does that work for you?

Hi!
I finally got around to trying out MobileOrg for Android.
After I finally managed to set up webdav and sync my files, MobileOrg
force closed. (development snapshot from today)
Now it force closes every time I try to start it.
I tried the 0.2 alpha release next but it also force closed on
startup.
Looking into my /sdcard/mobileorg files, I noticed that only parts of
my files were there.
In particular, I notice that I have subdirectories 'home' and 'work'
in my Org files, but there are no subdirectories in the
/sdcard/mobileorg directory.
Then I tried deinstalling the application and reinstalling (this time
the 0.2 alpha), put in my setup, pressed sync and get a force close
again.
Unfortunately the logcat contains the full contents of some of my org

Re: [Orgmode] Re: emacs/org-mode on Droid?
There are plenty of free webdav services out there, a quick google search came up with a few... I haven't used any of them as I run my own on my VPS, but check out http://www.box.net or http://mydisk.se Any of these should work fine with MobileOrg 73, Matthew W.

My ISP doesn't supply a WebDAV account but it does supply an FTP site. Why can't MobileOrg support FTP for those who don't want to go to the trouble of buying an extra WebDAV account?

Re: [Orgmode] org-mode on iPhone or Android: recommendations?
Hi Martin, I'm working on the Android port of MobileOrg. Currently it is in an early alpha stage and has very limited features. The goal is to reach feature parity with the iPhone and then to extend it and add niceties like a Widget that would let you view your agenda. Another poster mentioned using the N900 which is a great option if you want a full blown emacs and org-mode at your fingertips. The goal of MobileOrg (at least from my perspective) is not to implement 100% of Org's features (since I'm not interested in porting emacs itself), but rather to make MobileOrg a good compliment to Org on your workstation. There's a certain core set of features that will be implemented and then based on community feedback, that can be extended. Right now it is fairly useful for staying synchronized on your mobile device but without the ability to change task states or push new notes back to the server... that's what I am currently working on. If you have any questions please feel free to email me, or if you want to get involved or check out the code, or run it through an emulator to get a feel for it then you can grab the source from github at: http://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android 73, Matthew W.

Re: [Orgmode] MobileOrg Android 0.1_alpha
Hi Sven, are you connecting via https? What is your URI connect string? I think it should work fine but I'll set up an account and test it out tonight... if you have access to debug information via USB Debugging that would also be helpful. 73, Matthew W.

[Orgmode] MobileOrg Android 0.1_alpha
Hey folks, I've been working on a version of MobileOrg for the Android platform with the goal to reach feature parity with the iPhone version developed by Richard Moreland. I have completed an early alpha version that can fetch and display the contents of Org files stored on a webdav server. There are some good instructions for setting up a webdav server in the normal MobileOrg documentation: http://mobileorg.ncogni.to/doc/ For getting started from the emacs side of things, the Org-mode documentation itself contains all the information you need: http://orgmode.org/manual/MobileOrg.html As for the MobileOrg android application itself you can find the release notes and a download link here: http://wiki.github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/ There are some known issues with this early alpha version and can't synchronize back to the webdav server yet or handle setting the state of tasks but I felt this was a good start and would actually be useful for Org-mode users When you first start the application up you'll need to click Menu and then Settings and enter your webdav information. After saving you can click Menu again then Sync. Once that has finished it will populate the display and you can drill into your document structure. 73, Matthew W.
