I use the iPad a lot, and not just for browsing on the couch. When I want to edit my Org files on the iPad, I struggle. I really tried to use MobileOrg... it might be not so bad for looking up something but I don't like the editing experience. My work around at the moment is to log on the iMac through SSH and lunch the full Emacs. The experience is not perfect, mainly because it is not super fast and because it only works when I am at home. Right now, I am tempted by the many great plaint text editor that exist in iOS. This way, I would get a great typing experience but I would lose the ability to perform actions on the text until I get back to the PC. Is anyone in a similar situation? What are your solutions/workarounds? Carl --0016e652e238c6270604a99c9bae Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable My setup:
