Re: [Orgmode] iPhone ----> org-mode

[Carsten Dominik]

Hi Brad,

I hope you don't mind, but I find this *so extremely useful* that
I made a pure Emacs lisp version of this which is now in the git repo
under the name org-feed.el.  It is not made for fancy automatic
updating with cron jobs and git etc, but it makes for a stand-alone
alternative that will be easy to configure and has no dependencies
on external code.

For example, to get a reQall feed into file ~/org/feeds.org under  
heading
"ReQall Entries", you would do this.

(setq org-feed-alist
   '(("ReQall" "http://www.reqall.com/user/feeds/rss/a1b2...";
      "~/org/feeds.org" "ReQall Entries")))

I do hope that this will not stop python hackers from exploring
this further, because I thought that the python solution was really
good and innovative, and it shows what can be done with modules like
the ones Charles has put out.
