Date: Fri, 12 Apr 2013 16:17:42 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <878v4ne5kj.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 86fvyzekhp.fsf@somewhere.org
Last fall I wrote a very simple elnode based web server which allows for
Org-mode files to be viewed and edited through a web browser.
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/58773/focus=61752
It seems relevant to this discussion. I haven't touched the code in
some time, so it may need to be updated to work with a current Org-mode
(although it did use the new exporter). I've had a version running on
my home server continuously since the fall, and find it is the only way
I can get non-Emacs people to edit Org-mode files.
Cheers,
