I used iwriter (which is lovely) to bang out some text on my iPad and save it to .txt files on Dropbox. I post processed into org-mode in emacs afterwards. iWriter won't recognise the .org suffix by default, but that didn't matter to me because the iPad keyboard is useless for writing #* and other characters - WMMV if you have an external keyboard I guess. The nice thing is that all of my book related .org files also live in Dropbox as does the output pdf so I can read the output on the train too.
- pqs 14y agoYes. I think this is the most reasonable option. I could also automatically export my agenda to a pdf, which I could read, but not modify, on the iPad, using Dropbox. Then, I should post-process everything to update my org-mode files. The other option would be to buy a Windows 8 tablet (like the ThinkPad Helix), which can run Emacs. But Windows ... that would be a sacrifice ;-)
