MicroB & Tiddlywiki/mGSD
 

Anyone try running this great web-based GTD tool in microb?
http://www.tiddlywiki.com/
in particular mGSD
http://mgsd.tiddlyspot.com/

One of the best things about mGSD is portability. It's entirely web-based and very lightweight. Installation is just download one single web page and your're set. No worry about compilation/compatibility/data conversion issues. :cool:

However when running mGSD in microB there is a warning message and I can't find any setting to authenticate saving the changes. It looks like it has more to do with handling "file://" in general than the wiki page itself. Please see the screenshots.

I have to press "Allow" many times whenever I try saving changes to the content.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Now trying runing mGSD with Firefox. Works like a charm and even better than microb!
There is a setting to remember the "Allow" page option which seems to be missing in microb.

It takes quite a while to load your URL in MicroB.
Have your also tried opening this, and then saving as shown in the above pictures?

This wiki article describes the solution for older N800 tablets MicroB. Not working with N900 since there is not option to freely edit the about:config (meaning to add any new values). To disable the the warning we must edit the /home/user/.mozilla/microb/prefs.js file directly (accordingly to the wiki) but this is not possible because browser daemon resets it back to original. Does anyone know how to disable temporarily the browser daemon and its processes? I've tried all kill command combinations but unsuccessfuly. Any ideas?

Re: MicroB & Tiddlywiki/mGSD
 

@cube48 kill browser and browserd edit the microb prefs and restart the N900 without starting microb and you are good to go.

Re: MicroB & Tiddlywiki/mGSD
 

@antezz: I've tried exactly what you suggest but somehow to kill the daemon and processes completely is impossible for me. They are up and running immediately after I kill them. Could you please advise detailed commands? I've tried kill -9 browser* and others but no success.

Edit: Of course I did it under the root user ;-)

Edit2: I've tried:
ps -ef | grep browser //to get the pids of processes
and then kill the processes manually.
In the past I used to know how to write the command using awk and piping the pids directly to kill command so they are all killed in one moment. Out of my abilities now. Anyway, it looks there is something else which starts the browser processes.

Re: MicroB & Tiddlywiki/mGSD
 

Edit the prefs.js anyway you like and restart your N900 without starting the browser or it will reset the values.

Edit; "killall browser" only should be enough, http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...5&postcount=24 heres a previous post of mine helping how to edit the prefs.

Re: MicroB & Tiddlywiki/mGSD
 

@antezz: I've followed your instructions but the prefs.js is back to it's original. Even the comment in that file states that the changes will be overwritten (to original) when the application (browser) exits. And the browser processes were running even after the "killall browser". AFAIK reboot exits the browser correctly therefore it resets the file.

Edit: Solved!
I take my words back. The file was edited but the lines were sorted alphabetically so I missed them at first. Then I found out that just specifiyng the realm file:// is not enough. On N900 we must specify each file individually. This is what I added to my prefs.js:
As you might notice I use tbGTD (just another GTD flavor of tiddlywiki) placed in DropBox folder.

Now I can happily edit and SAVE my TW onboard of N900 without annoying warnings! Big thanks to antezz!

Thanks! tbGTD is very nice! It's more intuitive and less crowded than mGSD.
Will play with it on MicroB.
