Subject: MobileOrg and tags

Message-ID: <87r4sb5d5o.wl%jamshark70@dewdrop-world.net> (raw)

Been fiddling around with an issue that I noticed in MobileOrg for android... but I just noticed something strange that makes me think it's an issue in org-mode itself.

The issue reveals itself when using MobileOrg to edit a tagged node. Instead of the actual tags, MobileOrg shows "#+DRAWERS::" (as many times as there are tags for that item). Then this gets written back during org-mobile-pull.

What I noticed is this, in index.org:

#+TAGS: 
#+DRAWERS: PROPERTIES CLOCK LOGBOOK

So, I guess, really two issues:

- MobileOrg parses the absence of anything after "TAGS" as undifferentiated white space, and assumes that #+DRAWERS: is the name of a valid tag.

- Orgmode doesn't populate the list of tags based on the tags that are actually used in the source files.

So my questions are:

- Where are the #+TAGS: supposed to come from? Only from org-tag-alist? If so, that's a bit of a bother. I don't know in advance what tags I will need. I'd rather not have to customize the variable every time I introduce a new tag.

- If my guess is right, is it a reasonable enhancement to have org-mobile-push append the tags found in the files onto what is already there in org-tag-alist?

Thanks,
James
