Message-ID: <56AE43F2.6090903@pfdstudio.com> (raw)


I've been using org-mode for a few years, mainly for writing blog posts 
and documents, and, to a lesser extent, for keeping track of TODO items, 
etc. I barely scratch the surface of what org-mode can do, and I keep 
learning new bits incrementally, largely by reading this list.

I'm now almost ready to shelve my laptop and start using an iPad Pro 
with the Apple "smart" keyboard. However, I haven't found a good way to 
do my org-mode authoring.  I know there's org-mobile, but I don't want 
to have to think about sync'ing, or try to remember where the latest 
versions of my docs are as I move from one computer to another.

I've thought about using the iPad to ssh to a desktop computer, and just 
running emacs on that. That might be the best solution, but the Apple 
"smart" keyboard doesn't seem to have any meta key. Has anyone figured 
out how to get the option key to work that way in vSSH? Or is there a 
better ssh app?

Is there some other option I'm overlooking? I know there are some 
"almost emacs" apps, but ... they're "almost."

BTW, I also use emacs for gnus, and for web and software development, 
but org-mode is what I really need on the iPad.

Thanks!
