Greetings,
(cc'ing Matthew Jones, the mobile-org developer)


This is a followup from this thread:
- https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2015-09/msg00168.html

That ended with:

#+begin_quote Nicolas Goaziou

IIRC this change was introduced to fix another bug. It might be useful
to discuss with the author of this change. Another option is to use

  (or (member "|" kwds) (cons "|" (last kwds)))

#+end_quote

Here's the original patch referenced above, which I gather fixed one
thing but rendered file contents empty when viewing from mobile-org:
- https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2015-06/msg00656.html

I just went through setting up mobile-org to troubleshoot Peter's
issue and stumbled into the empty file issue:
- http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/102990/focus=103001

Googling around, I found out this was discovered quite some time ago (~Sept):
- https://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/issues/472
- https://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/issues/471

I can confirm that changing the relevant bit in org-mobile.el yielded
the full contents of my files upon re-sync. Could we figure out a
definitive resolution? For those setting up for the first time, this
will cause quite the confusion!


Many thanks,
John

The problem with the suggestion above is that it reverts original patch
and re-introduce the bug that patch was trying to fix. Namely, when
a todo sequence is

  ("A" "B")

"B" is a DONE keyword, as recognized by

  (or (member "|" kwds) (last kwds))

The real question is why a correct definition for DONE keywords
introduces a problem. IMO, this patch discloses another bug somewhere
else.

Any debugging would be appreciated, as it could well be on the mobile
part of the application.


Regards,
