I saw in a fomer post "From: Carsten Dominik science.uva.nl> Subject: Other software development for Org-mode Newsgroups: gmane.emacs.orgmode Date: 2006-03-14 10:39:25 GMT (33 weeks, 5 days and 49 minutes ago) (...) Bonsai Outliner for Windows/PalmOS, export/import options for Org-mode files Thomas Baumann has been working on these, but not finished the org-to-bonsai branch if I remember correctly because of problems with the data format on the Palm." But my googling didn't find anything else. I actually have lowered my expectations to just (?) two things: a) outlines; b) calendar/deadlines info. a) For outlines, I used to use Shadow Plan (http://www.codejedi.com/) on my Palm. Getting the outlines into org is a piece of cake (at least under Linux); from the Shadow Desktop one exports as ASCII, and using sed (or whatever) one replaces \t by *. So now all that info is an org outline. I assume similar things can be done with other Palm outliners. But: a.1. How do I go back to the Palm? a.1.1. Via Plucker; export from org as html, use plucker for html -> pdb. That works, but that is not editable in the Palm a.1.2. Convert the org file to a pdb using pyrite publisher (http://www.pyrite.org/publisher/index.html). That is a regular file that can be seen and edited inside the Palm, but one looses the structure, and if one edits the file in the Palm, how will the new stuff be incoporated in any reasonable way into org? b) calendar/dates, etc. The options are somewhat like a). One can see the info, but that stuff does not show up in the Palm calendar. I am wondering if anybody has any suggestiongs/ideas or things to try. My googling is not really finding much.
