[O] New maintainer for MobileOrg on iOS

2012-08-20 Thread Richard Moreland
I'm looking for someone to take over maintaining MobileOrg for iOS.  My iOS
Developer subscription ($99/yr) is about to expire on September 7, and I'm
hoping I can find someone who may be interested in iOS development to carry
it forward before then.

I also just got a notification from Dropbox that the API version I'm using
will be retired in December 2012, so there would be that small amount of
work involved to keep it up to date.

I don't have a Mac or iPhone anymore, but I'm happy to help anyone who's
willing to get up to speed with it.

If you're interested, please let me know.

Thanks,
Richard


Re: [Orgmode] MobileOrg: Unexpceted error when syncing data from Dropbox

2010-12-13 Thread Richard Moreland
Hi All,

I've had a few emails on this and I spent a while this evening trying
to recreate it.  Unfortunately, I've been unable to make this happen.
It sounds like there are 2 errors people are seeing:

- Unexpected error when syncing
- Bad file encoding

If anyone is able to take a snapshot of an org-mobile-directory that
is triggering this problem, I'd love to run it through the debugger
here and see what's going on.  Or if you've got an idea of how to
recreate it another way, please let me know.  I've tried just about
everything I can think of to no avail.

I appreciate the help of anyone who can help me recreate it.

Thanks,
Richard

 Thanks Richard, that worked fine.

 But does that mean there's a bit of coordination to manage if multiple
 users all decided they want to use MobileOrg? In turn, each user would
 get their top level MobileOrg folder up and running, then move it down
 a level, so as to make space for the next user who'd do the same?

I'm not sure how your account sharing is setup:  if you are all using
the same credentials, you will probably run into trouble.  Each Dropbox
account will only get a single 'magic' MobileOrg folder, so if everyone
is sharing a single login, I don't see how it will work.  It would
probably be possible to change MobileOrg to support specifying the
folder in your Dropbox account that it should use, but I have
reservations about that. The way I use the API now, MobileOrg only has
access to its own sandbox/special folder.  There's no way it could
accidentally mess with/expose/etc your other Dropbox files.

The other option is to let each user have their own Dropbox account and
simply share folders from a master account to each person.

Hope this helps,

Richard

Re: [Orgmode] MobileOrg on DropBox for Teams

2010-11-27 Thread Richard Moreland
Hi Tommy,

You should be able to rename the MobileOrg directory from within the web
interface once you've linked MobileOrg to your Dropbox account.  You'll
know it worked because the renamed folder will continue to have the same
special icon that it had prior to the rename, indicating that it is
linked to an application.

You won't need to change anything on the iPhone side, it doesn't really
know what folder its data is stored in.  However, in your .emacs, you'll
want to change org-mobile-directory to your newly directory name.

Hope this helps,
Richard

 Is the location on DropBox where the iPhone app expects to find the org
 files hard-coded (to /MobileOrg), or is it customizable?
 
 I've tried messing with org-mobile-directory on the emacs side and with
 the Index File field on the iPhone app, but it didn't work. I tried:
 
 I set org-mobile-directory to:
  ~/Dropbox/mydir/MobileOrg
 
 and on the iPhone I set Index File to:
 /mydir/MobileOrg/index.html
 
 It didn't complain when syncing but I got no files on the iPhone (I'd
 org-mode-push'ed first).
 
 Tommy
 
 P.S. I've previously had MobileOrg syncing working fine with the files
 in the default place. So my basic setup appears to be fine.
 
 P.P.S. The reason I ask is we use DropBox for Teams. If we had multiple
 MobileOrg users, then the default setting would cause collisions since
 all our files would be getting dropped in /MobileOrg. It would be better
 if we could have the files kept in individualized directories,
 e.g. within user-specific DB folders.

 What's up, what gives?

Re: [Orgmode] Tracking time with MobileOrg

2010-10-06 Thread Richard Moreland
Hi Jeff,

I'm glad you mentioned this.  It is on my list of things to work on next.

I still need to coordinate it with Carsten to make sure the approach is sound 
and that he can support me by updating org-mobile.el.

My plan for the UI is this:

- Two methods to clock in a new task:  First, you can tap and hold on a node, 
then click the 'Clock in' button.  Alternatively, you can open up the node 
details page and click a similar 'Clock in' button.

- To clock out, you can use the same method, but the button would say 'Clock 
out' instead.  Since it would be tedious to find the current clocking item, I'm 
considering...

- A tab/icon at the bottom for Clocking (like the 4 existing icons at the 
bottom).  I may make it optional in the Settings page.  If you are clocking, 
there will be an indicator on the icon letting you know so, perhaps by 
overlaying the clock time on the icon somehow.

- If you click on the clocking icon at the bottom, a list of recently clocked 
tasks will be shown, with the active one being highlighted.  You can stop the 
running clock, or start the clock on any of your recent items.

When you sync and run org-mobile-pull, the time logs would be added to the 
correct nodes (I'll need Carsten or a volunteer to help me integrate this part).

I believe this workflow would make it easy to clock in (either by navigating to 
the node in the outline, searching for it on the Search page, or identifying a 
recently clocked item) and clock out.

I haven't covered any type of reporting within the app, I was hoping to keep 
things relatively simple.  But if there is a need for this let me know.  
Perhaps clicking on an entry in the recently clocked list could display the 
start/stop times and some summary info.

Let me know what you think, it would help to have some feedback on the workflow 
before I begin.

Thanks,
Richard

 Can the current version of MobileOrg be used for a simple time tracking

 My wife has a need for a simple time tracking application on the iPhone. The
 only number needed is total hours spent per period (e.g. month) on one task, 
 the
 full-time job.
 
 I use Org Mode for my own worklogs, and would do any necessary pre-templating
 and post-processing on the resultant Org file, if a rapid-capture strategy can
 be worked out for MobileOrg.
 
 Given how much I use and like Org Mode myself, I'd be really pleased if we can
 work with Org as a file format for this application, rather than some
 closed-source app.
 
 Thanks,
 Jeff

 tanks for starting this, it looks pretty good.

I also think we should add a section in the 'Comments' field of the
form that says why we think Org-mode should get a devroom (or at least
a portion of one).  It may be helpful to identify approximately how
many users are on the mailing list, downloads/month, as well as note
that it is included in Emacs so there may be many more.  Whoever fills
out the form on the website should probably get this information from
Carsten before submitting.

 Still we need someone who says I will organize this.
 Who will do that?

If no one else volunteers, I will.

 Most importantly, we need to know if any money is
 involved, including registration fees.

I've looked through the website quite a bit, and it is free for all
participants.  The only additional costs will be hotel accommodations,
food, and possibly parking/transportation to get there.  It sounds
like breakfast and lunch can be purchased on-site, but dinner would be
on your own.

Perhaps the organizer could find a good place meet for dinner for
those who don't have other plans.

We need to have the entry form submitted prior to October 16, but the
earlier the better is my opinion.  On October 23 they announce who was
accepted, at which point we should begin formalizing plans for talks,
participants, etc.

 I'd think of a capture icon, an agenda icon, and maybe moving arrows to
 rework the outline, for instance...

 I'm not sure how hard this would be to add... and there's probably
 someone smart that already tried it... however couldn't find any past

 Wow, Richard. That was sweet. You even have a pleasing screencaster's voice.
 
 My only thought was along the lines of what one should assume about org-mode 
 viewers. Familiarity with emacs? No knowledge of emacs? I only got into emacs 
 because I found org-mode, so my only thought there is that I might not even 
 have known what meta was... I can't recall, but did you clarify meta = alt 
 on Win/Linux and Command on Mac?
 
 Stuff like that might be helpful. Obviously these won't all be done on a Mac 
 and some unfamiliar with it might wonder what the Command and carat symbols 
 are on their own keyboards?
 
 As Erik said -- folding and perhaps adjusting in and out (meta + left/right). 
 Also, it seems that only the meta or control functions show up as keystrokes. 
 For example, I thought you said M-n s and M-n w to narrow on the tree and 
 then widen the view but I only ever saw one part of that flash on the screen.
 
 Great, great job. Loved it and think this is exactly what Org could use. I

 But even starting with agendas in the next one, the more interesting things
 can be shown.
 
 Great job!
 
 So with the software you use, you can go and insert/delete/edit voice into the
 presentation once it's complete, or if you want to change the wording in one
 part, do you have to record the whole thing over again?  I assume you can 
 change
 it, but don't know if the Linux tool has that capability.

[Orgmode] Org-mode screencasts

2010-09-23 Thread Richard Moreland
Hi All,

I think it would be helpful to create a series of screencasts to
demonstrate Org-mode.  The screencasts I've made for MobileOrg[1,2]
seem to have helped users get started quickly.  There are so many
powerful features of Org-mode that are difficult to visualize yourself
using until you can see them in action.  It may also help draw in new
users who otherwise wouldn't quite get it.

Some topics that may be interesting:

- Org-mode in action, demonstrating common tasks like capture,
restructuring a tree, refiling, etc.
- Babel
- Integration with other tools (Gnus, WL, Firefox, etc)
- Clocking/reporting
- Export capabilities
- Power user showing their streamlined configurations
- ...?

I'd like to collect all of the videos in one place, unify them with
some similar (but simple) production, with each of the videos having a
page that links to documentation, Worg, example dotfiles, comments,
etc to help the user take it further on their own.

I'd be happy to host the videos if bandwidth is a concern on the
orgmode.org site.  I've also already purchased the necessary software
to record/edit the videos.  But I'm looking to the community for ideas
on topics as well as individuals who would be willing to record the
videos or at least help me work up a script with key talking points so
I could do the recording and narration.

What do you think?  Anyone interested in helping?

Thanks,
Richard

Re: [Orgmode] Org-mode screencasts

2010-09-23 Thread Richard Moreland
I've just installed and tested recordmydesktop (based on Russell's
recommendation) on my Linux system and it seems to work great.  It
produces .ogv video files, which will need to be run through ffmpeg or
mencode first to be compatible with Vimeo.

On my Mac, I used Telestream's ScreenFlow, which has a great set of
editing tools built in.

I'd like to create a Worg page that will list:

- A link to each screencast
  Each screencast page ideally would contain:
  - Embedded video
  - Links to relevent documentation
  - Material referenced from the video (links to other packages, etc.)
  - Sample configuration files needed to achieve the results of the video
- Subject ideas
- Tools needed to record your own, where to upload them, etc.

I hope once we get one or two in there, it'll be easy for anyone else
who wants to contribute to follow suit.

I like the idea of using Vimeo since we may get new users who search
for emacs on that site.

So.. who wants to go first? :)  (Or if you don't want to do the
recording yourself, I'd be happy to work with you to come up with some
basic script for me to follow).

 First of all, your MobileOrg screencasts are very nice.
 In my opinion, keeping things high-level and showing
 the major features are what is important.  In a way,
 they are commercials for the product, and I think the
 best way to entice people into trying the product is to
 make them say Wow when viewing the video.

 I would be happy to help but would need to know the
 software requirements.  Is it easy to make these under
 Linux?

Re: [Orgmode] Re: Org-mode screencasts

2010-09-23 Thread Richard Moreland
Erik, thanks for the reminder about folding.  I had it in my script and must've 
lost it in one of the edits.  I do prefer making these on the Mac.  It makes 
piecing them together much easier.  Recordmydesktop on Linux will do single 
takes fine, but stitching it together in the end may be a chore.  Maybe you 
guys are good enough to do it all in one take though :)

John, you raise good points about what we can expect of the viewer.  I'm open 
to suggestions, in fact maybe a 'Just enough Emacs for Org-mode' intro could 
help newcomers to Emacs who are here just for Org-mode (like I was a year ago). 
 Some of these issues could also be addressed on the episode's webpage, which 
would link to relevant docs and info.

As far as some of the missing keystrokes, I was trying to find a balance 
between showing every keystroke (and risk confusing the user), or just show 
only the keys with modifiers (my 2 options in the tool, unfortunately).

I've updated the screencast (same URL) to contain a small bit about folding.

Thanks for the comments, I hope we can refine this and make a plan for more as 
well.

 Wow, Richard. That was sweet. You even have a pleasing screencaster's voice.
 
 My only thought was along the lines of what one should assume about org-mode 
 viewers. Familiarity with emacs? No knowledge of emacs? I only got into emacs 
 because I found org-mode, so my only thought there is that I might not even 
 have known what meta was... I can't recall, but did you clarify meta = alt 
 on Win/Linux and Command on Mac?
 
 Stuff like that might be helpful. Obviously these won't all be done on a Mac 
 and some unfamiliar with it might wonder what the Command and carat symbols 
 are on their own keyboards?
 
 As Erik said -- folding and perhaps adjusting in and out (meta + left/right). 
 Also, it seems that only the meta or control functions show up as keystrokes. 
 For example, I thought you said M-n s and M-n w to narrow on the tree and 
 then widen the view but I only ever saw one part of that flash on the screen.
 
 Great, great job. Loved it and think this is exactly what Org could use. I 
 have a co-worker who just got emacs and org-mode up on his computer and would 
 love to have something this simple and clear-cut.
 
 
 Great work, again.

[Orgmode] MobileOrg 1.4 for iPhone/iPad released

2010-09-10 Thread Richard Moreland
Hi All,

I just wanted to pass along that MobileOrg 1.4 has been released on
the AppStore.  It now supports iOS 4.x for fast app switching, in
addition to native support for iPad.

Link with some screenshots for iPhone and iPad:

  http://itunes.apple.com/app/mobileorg/id335805599?mt=8

There are also a few bugfixes, including:

- A bug in the Dropbox login page that prevented the password from
being initialized properly
- Bad file encoding bug in mobileorg.org when using Dropbox and
capturing notes

Let me know if you find any problems or have any feedback.

Thanks,
Richard

 Hi.  I have a question about setting MobileOrg.

 The directory needed for MobileOrg seems fine.  I am a little confused how
 I should write index.org in order to make links to other org files.

 If I write in index.org like,

 * [[file:project.org][an important project]]

 the index.org makes a link to the file, project.org, then I can view and
 edit this file with iPhone as well as iPod touch.  Am I correct?
 I have written this way, and executed on Emacs org-mobile-push, then
 pushed the sync button.  It does not show the link to the file,
 project.org at all.
 I don't know why but  * [[file:project.org][an important project]]  part
 was erased from index.org.

 Am I doing something wrong or I simply misunderstand how it works?

Re: [Orgmode] Re: OrgMobile - just a little help?

2010-07-30 Thread Richard Moreland
On Fri, Jul 30, 2010 at 8:42 AM, Erwin Panen erwinpa...@fastmail.fm wrote:

 A couple more questions:
 - Suppose I have my main.org, containing a tasklist.
    Is it correct that, on the mobile device, I can only change status,
 priority  tags
    But I can't add a new *task* or item??

This is correct, you can't modify the outline's structure.  The idea
is you can edit tasks if you need to (mark as done, edit content, etc)
and you can capture new notes.  When you get back to your PC and you
org-mobile-pull, the changes you made are integrated back into the
real org files on your desktop.  New notes are added into
from-mobile.org for you to refile as you please.  You would then
org-mobile-push again to make sure the server gets the latest
integrated copies.

 - I'm also confused about file location(s)
    1. org-mobile-directory ~/Dropbox/MobileOrg
    2. org-mobile-inbox-for-pull ~/git/org/from-mobile.org
    I've also read that By default all agenda files (as listed in
 org-agenda-files) are pushed to MobileOrg using Push / Pull
    Is it then true, that e.g. agenda files located in ~/git/org/ will ALSO
 by synched to MobileOrg?

Sorry, not exactly sure what you mean here, but all files listed in
org-agenda-files are 'staged' during org-mobile-push.  If you have
extra files in ~/git/org/ that aren't in org-agenda-files, they won't
be available in MobileOrg.

    What is the purpose of the Show app badge in Settings on the iPad

It was suggested that the app badge indicate outstanding edits you've
made that haven't been synced yet.  The idea is that you can make some
offline edits and click 'Sync' at your convenience.  The badge helps
you remember to do that.

    Do you have any plans for a HD version? (iPad)

I've been tinkering with a new version that runs on iOS 4 (to support
the fast app-switching, which is great by the way) and iPad.  There
are some tweaks that need to be made still, if anyone wants to
volunteer I'd be happy to help :)

I think this example configuration might clarify things for you:

;; You should only touch these files, treat them as you normally would
(setq org-directory ~/git/org)

;; You should never touch these files with your editor.
Org-mobile-push and -pull are responsible for putting files into and
pulling files out of this directory.
(setq org-mobile-directory ~/Dropbox/MobileOrg)

So in your case, it is probably best to empty the contents of
~/Dropbox/MobileOrg, set the variables as described above, then do an
org-mobile-push again.

Hope this helps,
Richard

Hi Erwin,

On Jul 30, 2010, at 10:17 AM, Erwin Panen wrote:

 Also I have probably difficulty in understanding stage staging could you 
 clarify this some more? When I read stage, I think of on stage or 
 back-stage in terms of a theatre, should I think of staging org files as 
 putting them on the mobile iPhone stage?

I think that would be fair to say.  The term staging made a bit more sense 
before Dropbox support was added, since the files were typically staged in a 
local directory then copied to your WebDAV server.

 Further to the app badge:
 Would this then show the number of changes like it shows on the Outlines icon 
 or analoguous to e.g. the Mail icon in the iPhones dock?
 If yes, on what basis will synching happen ?

The badge will show the cumulate count of unsynced edit/new notes, so it will 
be the sum of the red indicator badges that show up on the Outlines and Capture 
buttons.  When you open the app and press sync, the badge will be cleared.

No background syncing happens at all, it is a manual process triggered by 
pressing the 'Sync' icon on the main Outlines screen.

 I'm not sure if this is possible at all, but I think it would be extremely 
 helpfull to kind of create a PRE CONFIGURED example setup, say in a 
 temporary LEARNING directory, you could then perhaps fire up emacs using a 
 pre-formatted .emacs file in conjunction with a free Dropbox account as an 
 example.
 I know it's always easy on the other side to thinker this out, but probably 
 this would not be so easy to do. Just my 2 cents of course.
 Or elaborate on the video...

This is a good idea, I need to make some better videos with instructions of how 
to get going from the ground up.  I hope to do this soon.

 I'll try to digg a bit further in the functioning of from-mobile.org
 Is there a way to say ACCEPT a new note, and easily move it into the correct 
 org file? A bit the way remember mode functions? Using templates the same way?

This would be interesting, but at present it doesn't do anything fancy.  The 
idea is to use the refile mechanism and sort them after a pull.

Re: [Orgmode] [mobile-org] Recovering notes

2010-07-19 Thread Richard Moreland
Hi Marcelo,

If you happened to plug in your device somewhat recently and a backup
was made through iTunes, you may be able to dig through the backup and
find the sqlite database MobileOrg uses.  You might also be able to
find a temp Org-file the app uses.

Feel free to email me off-list and I can help you try to track that
down if you choose to go that route.

Hope this helps.  I'll see if I can recreate this problem and issue a
warning instead of losing notes.

 If it's not possible, maybe this could serve as a new feature

I've been using the current version of MobileOrg on iOS 4.0 since an

 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.

 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: [Orgmode] mobileorg - No executable found to compute checksums

2010-06-29 Thread Richard Moreland
Hi Buck,

You need a copy of shasum.exe in your system path.  You should be able
to download this package from gnuwin32:

http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/downlinks/coreutils-bin-zip.php

You don't need everything from that package, just the one .exe.

Hope this helps,

[Orgmode] MobileOrg + DropBox beta testers needed

2010-05-25 Thread Richard Moreland
I've recently finished up support for DropBox in MobileOrg (iPhone),
but I need a handful of testers interested in this configuration to
help me make sure all is well.

If you've already done beta testing for MobileOrg, just let me know
you're interested and I'll send you a copy.  Otherwise, please send me
your device's UDID so I can provision you as a tester.  (Please reply
off-list with this information)

This build should help new users more easily get started.  No more
fussing with hooks calling scp or davfs unless you want to.

Thanks,

Re: [Orgmode] Newbie question: mobileorg and org-mode configuration

2010-03-07 Thread Richard Moreland

Hi Neil,

Hope I can shed some light on the configuration for you:

- You shouldn't need to set org-mobile-files, afaik.  If you just define 
org-agenda-files, those files will be used (one less thing to maintain).


- You don't need the pre/post hooks at all.  In your case, just copying 
the files to /Volumes/nhepburn/org/state/ is enough to put them on the 
server.  (Well, sort of.. eventually it's up to OSX to sync that folder 
with your iDisk, but that should be automatic, or can be configured to 
be so).  The hooks are for those who need an additional step to copy the 
staged files from their local system to a remote server.


I think this may be good enough, you were almost there.  Let me know if 
you have trouble after making these changes.

Hi All

I am a new user to org-mode and was almost immediately hooked. (I'm also a

mobileorg app for my iPod touch from the Apple appstore and now I'm rapidly 
losing what's left of my hair - doh!

Anyhow, I have org-mode working happily in Aqumacs emacs but I can't seem to 
get things to work with org-mobile.  Here's the basics of my setup

-my .org files reside in a folder on my iDisk so that I can sync them between 
my laptop and my desktop. That all works swell

-I have mobileorg on my iPod set to hit my idisk account and that works fine.

The problem I am having is figuring out the configuration stuff in my 
Preferences.el file. Here's a copy of the relevant section


(setq org-mobile-directory /Volumes/nhepburn/org/stage/)
(setq org-mobile-files (quote(/Volumes/nhepburn/org/todo.org 
/Volumes/nhepburn/org/teaching.org /Volumes/nhepburn/org/research.org)))

(add-hook 'org-mobile-post-pull-hook
(lambda () (shell-command scp /Volumes/nhepburn/org/stage/mobileorg.org 
u...@wdhost:mobile/)))


my *.org files for org-mode reside in ../org/ while the mobile files reside in 
../org/stage/

I've scoured the Org-mobile manual, trolled through the mailing list archive, 
and spent countless hours doing google searches. Can someone suggest the right 
bit of stuff to put in here and then how to make org-mode in Aquamacs push to 
and pull from my mobileorg stuff?

Thanks in advance.

Re: [Orgmode] org-mobile + git

2010-02-18 Thread Richard Moreland
Hi Yuri,

Short answer:  not directly.

However, I've had success using a cron job on my server to
periodically run git pull then org-mobile-push in batch mode, which
takes the latest files and stages them into my webdav directory.  You
can also automate an org-mobile-pull to integrate changes made on the
iPhone back into your git repository, then commit.

Hope this helps, even though it isn't exactly what you're looking for.

Re: [Orgmode] Mobile Org and idisk.me.com

2010-02-17 Thread Richard Moreland
Hi Ross,

You'll want to set org-mobile-directory to something like
/Volumes/rosslaird/org (or wherever your iDisk is mounted, typically
under /Volumes/mobilemeusername).  You can poke around and find your
org folder under /Volumes to identify the precise location.

Your iDisk folder should then sync with MobileMe either automatically
when it sees a change, or periodically if you have it configured to
only sync every N minutes, and you should be in business.

The /scp (and ssh variants) use TRAMP, which connects over SSH to your
server to copy the files.  iDisk doesn't support this, so you'll need
to use the alternate approach above.

If you have any trouble, let me know.

Thanks,
Richard

Re: [Orgmode] MobileOrg and mydisk.se

2010-02-06 Thread Richard Moreland
Hi Henri-Paul,

MyDisk.se doesn't provide SSH/SCP access to your files, so you'll need
to use another method to get your files onto their WebDAV server.

On OSX, a Cmd+K in Finder will let you mount a WebDAV share in
/Volumes/name.  On Linux, there is a FUSE plugin (davfs2) that will
let you mount the share wherever you'd like.

You would then point your staging directory in your org configuration
to the mount point.

Hope this helps, I've personally tried the Finder method in OSX, and
I've had several users report success with davfs2.

Re: [Orgmode] org-mobile-push and agenda IDs

2010-01-15 Thread Richard Moreland
Hi Tom,

They are not required, but they eliminate potential problems that may
be encountered with the simple path-based node identification scheme.
The risk level is fairly low, and you should be fine with the force
option disabled.

The path-based id scheme fails if you have this:

* Parent
** A name
*** A node you didn't edit
** A name
*** A node you edited

The path to the node you edited is ambiguous and will cause a sync
conflict.  As long as you keep this in mind, you should be fine.

Hope this helps,
Richard

Hi Daniel,

There is no support for this in MobileOrg yet, but it has resided on my todo
list for a while.

Do you currently use any encryption on your local Org-files in Emacs?  I've

http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/CategoryCryptography) to see how it plays
with Org.  If it worked well, my rough plan was to make MobileOrg able to

If anyone has any better ideas, let me know.  I'm not sure how this would
best be implemented.

 Hello,
 
 I am interested in using mobile org.
 I currently use an ancient nokia phone because I was never sure what

 Mobileorg may well be the app that pushes me to upgrade  but to what??
 

As you saw, MobileOrg is limited to iPhone/iPod Touch.  There has been some 
stirring to look into an Android version, but nothing has come of that yet.

Other folks are running Emacs either natively on their phones or ssh'ing into a 
remote host and running Emacs.  I can't speak to the effectiveness of this, 
having not tried it myself, but the recent speed keys support in Org has 
apparently made this a bit more usable.

 The mobileorg site seems to say that this works for iphones - period
 Whereas the org-mobile.el has the following comment
 ;; The code is not specific for the iPhone, however.
 ;; Any external viewer/flagging/editing application that uses the same
 ;; conventions could be used
 It would be nice to list somewhere ein more or less generic terms what
 kind of phones can sync with mobileorg

This code is meant to be reused when an app similar to MobileOrg is built on 
another platform.  The new author can reuse the Emacs integration code 
(org-mobile-*) that Carsten wrote.  His goal was to write that once, not once 
per mobile application that springs up.

Hope this helps,
Richard

Re: [Orgmode] [mobileorg] mobileorg.org empty on webdav, mobileorg still showing items

Hi Marcelo,

On Nov 19, 2009, at 12:19 PM, Marcelo de Moraes Serpa wrote:

 This one relates to the capture feature. When I capture on orgmobile and
 sync, the notes go to the mobileorg.org file. When I do a org-mobile-pull

 emptying mobileorg.org. Just after that, @mobileorg, if I sync again, the
 capture view still shows the items I captured, however, since
 mobileorg.orgis empty, I don't think they should be shown there.

You should do a push operation after a pull.  The push operation will update 
the checksum file and let MobileOrg know to fetch your updated mobileorg.org 
file (which should now be empty).

A push will almost always make sense to do after you've pulled and fully 
integrated your mobile changes.

 
 Also, I have noted that when I capture something new, the capture icon is
 decorated with a number icon that shows the  number fo the new notes I have
 taken. When I sync, this icon disappears, but the old notes are still
 shown. Am I missing something in here?

The red counter badges indicate changes that have been made that need syncing 
(like count of new notes since the last sync, or in the case of the Outlines 
tab, number of edits waiting to be synced).  They do not indicate the number of 
notes you've captured, though this may sometimes happen to be the same.

Hope this helps,

Re: [Orgmode] [orgmobile] the role of the index.org file

Re: [Orgmode] [orgmobile] the role of the index.org file

2009-11-19 Thread Richard Moreland
Unfortunately you've crossed out of iPhone app territory and into the Emacs 
side where I can't help you very much.

My (hacky) solution would be to use a 'org-mobile-post-push-hook' to run a sed 
command on the generated index.org file to do your substitution.  I think this 
should work, but I'm sure there is a much smarter way to do it.

There's an example that scp's the generated files here:
http://orgmode.org/manual/Setting-up-the-staging-area.html#Setting-up-the-staging-area

You would probably do the same, except use a sed command instead of scp (since 
your files are staged directly to your mounted WebDAV folder).

Re: [Orgmode] [ORGMOBILE] Styled TODO keywords not showing on my ipod touch

2009-11-18 Thread Richard Moreland
Hi Marcelo,

I made a FAQ a while back about this, it is linked from the MobileOrg website:

http://wiki.github.com/richard/mobileorg/frequently-asked-questions

This situation most commonly occurs if you are not using Org-mode integration 
(org-mobile-push and pull). You will need to place lines like the following in 
the Org-file you link to from MobileOrg (typically index.org):

#+TODO: TODO | DONE
#+TODO: INVOICE SENT | RECEIVED

This will let MobileOrg known which words to highlight as keywords, and whether 
they should be red or green (todo or done).

Hope this helps,
Richard

Re: [Orgmode] [orgmobile] Search by two tags or more

2009-11-18 Thread Richard Moreland
Hi again Marcelo,

I haven't yet implemented this feature, but it is a good idea.  I will consider 
how to best implement this for a future release.

Thanks,
Richard

 Is it possible to search for items with two tags or more. For example, let's
 say I want to search for items @OFFICE and FOCUS. I've tried and it doesn't
 seem to work. Is it possible somehow?
 
 Thanks,

 Thanks Richard!
 
 I'd like to get into org-mobile development, what would be the basic roadmap
 to get into that?

The source tree is at http://github.com/richard/mobileorg

You'll need OSX with the latest iPhone SDK (free).  It includes a simulator 
which allows you to run MobileOrg on your Mac.  From there, it is just a matter 
of fetching the code from GitHub and clicking 'Build' in XCode.

I managed to get by without any prior ObjC experience at all.  The samples that 
come with the iPhone SDK are very helpful.

If you'd like more info, feel free to contact me off-list.  I may setup a short 
'How to contribute' guide on the website with helpful info and links I've found 
along the way.

 Is there a way to program the iPhone SDK on Linux?

Unfortunately not.  However, you can look at the code to see if it is something 
that interests you.

Thanks,
Richard

 
 Thanks,
 
 Marcelo.

[Orgmode] MobileOrg 1.0 for iPhone/iPod Touch now available

2009-11-03 Thread Richard Moreland

Hi all,

MobileOrg 1.0 is now available in the iTunes AppStore:  http://bit.ly/1kpHqg 
  Documentation (including a screencast demonstrating the app) is  
available on the website at http://mobileorg.ncogni.to.


Many thanks to Carsten and all the beta testers who helped get it  
ready for release.  Feel free to contact me with any questions or  
support requests.  If there is a question related to Org-mode  
integration, CC: Carsten too, he's the expert on that side of things.


Be sure to use Org-mode 6.32 or later.

Hope you all enjoy.

Thanks,
Richard

[Orgmode] MobileOrg beta tester invitation

2009-09-24 Thread Richard Moreland
Hi,

So it took a little bit longer than I expected, but we are now ready
to accept beta testers to help finalize MobileOrg before submitting it
to the App Store.  There are some issues that still need polish, but
we are nearly feature complete.

There are several ways you can help:

* Bugs:  Please report any bugs or confusing behavior in the app.

* Documentation:  Located on the app's website.  It is brand new and
there are bound to be some confusing or incomplete sections.

* Website:  The app's website may have problems too, perhaps it
doesn't look right in your browser.  Please report any of these
issues.

* Ideas:  We are trying to keep the feature set tight for the 1.0
release in order to get it out there to everyone.  However, new ideas
are always welcome.

If you'd like to help us get to 1.0 smoothly, please send me an email
off-list with your device ID.  To retrieve your device ID:

1. Connect your iPod or iPod Touch to your machine
2. Choose your device in the source list in iTunes
3. Click the 'Summary' tab in iTunes.
4. Click on the 'Serial Number' label.  It should change to 'Identifier'.
5. Click on the Edit menu, then select 'Copy'
6. Paste the device ID in an email to me.

Alternatively, search for 'UDID Sender' by 'Inside Root Media' in the
App Store.  It is a small app that will simply email your device ID
to an email address of your choice.

I'll reply with further instructions to help you get started.

Thanks for your help!

-Richard

[Orgmode] iPhone app for Org view and capture

2009-09-08 Thread Richard Moreland
Hi all,

I've been working with Carsten on a free iPhone app for Org.  We are still
working out some of the details, but so far we have it running on the phone
in a fairly usable state.  It needs some polish, but it is very nice to see
my Org data easily accessible on a mobile device with offline access.  To be
clear, we aren't trying to run Emacs on the device.  The goal is to view Org
files and agendas as well as capture new notes.

Here is a teaser video of the app running in the simulator:
http://ncogni.to/mobileorg-demo1.mov

Once we feel the basics are worked out, we will solicit a request for beta
testers and feedback, but for now you'll have to be satisfied with the demo
video :)

Thanks,
Richard

Re: [Orgmode] iPhone app for Org view and capture

2009-09-08 Thread Richard Moreland
Thanks for checking it out.  Unfortunately I don't have access to any  
Android hardware, and now that I've got Org on my iPhone, I probably  
won't be looking at any other hardware for a while :)  But I would be  
happy to help contribute code/ideas/experience/etc to any developers  
interested in taking it on.

Very nice, congratulations. The unavoidable question: Will there be an
Android port as well?

Re: [Orgmode] iPhone app for Org view and capture

2009-09-08 Thread Richard Moreland

Hi Peter,

You nailed nearly point-for-point the current state of capturing notes  
in the app (as of today, after the demo video was made).  Thanks for  
your comments, I hadn't considered displaying the last sync time.   
That will indeed be handy.


As you imagined, you can operate entirely offline (that was my goal in  
the first place, after all).  You can view your outlines, add as many  
notes as you like, and sync whenever you care to.  You can edit/delete  
notes if they haven't been synced yet.  There's also a handy indicator  
on the bottom of the screen letting you know how many notes aren't yet  
synced.


Thanks,
Richard

Wow indeed. Some things immediately came up when viewing the movie;  
I hope you don't mind me posting them so soon.


I imagine the app does not require a live connection to the server.  
In order to work offline, I think that the app must

- clearly show the time of downloading each document,
- be able to capture and store multiple notes when offline and  
forward them when online. A way of reviewing the stored notes,  
possibly edit or remove them would be a bonus.


I could imagine that captured but not yet forwarded notes appear in  
the 'capture.org' document entry (on the App), marked as not- 
forwarded and being editable and removable. After syncing, these  
notes become part of the real capture.org document and thus read- 
only, just like the rest.



Oh well, you probably thought of all that, so I'll just shut up now...

Cheers,
Peter.
