Unfortunately, the bluetooth HW keyboards I was testing did not provide a method to send Ctrl/Alt/Esc -> no way. With software keyboards (hacker's keyboard) I don't want to use Emacs since the commands are "in my fingers" and with SW keyboards, I have to start remembering the commands to use them slowly. I was reading about the ARM-based mini-computers here. But since my Org is rather slow on my intel i5/16GB RAM, I can't imagine working on such a low performance hardware (again). So far, Org-mode to go is a very unfortunate adventure. -- mail|git|SVN|photos|postings|SMS|phonecalls|RSS|CSV|XML to Org-mode: > get Memacs from https://github.com/novoid/Memacs < https://github.com/novoid/extract_pdf_annotations_to_orgmode + more on github
