Hi, I found a solution that works pretty well for me. I changed the howm-directory variable in howm-vars.el to my shared network/cloud folder on Dropbox. Then recompiled the file. Now I have howm synchronised on about 4 different machines and it works great. if you don't have a network, simply sync the howm folder with all you data on it betwen machines I think would work. regards, Vid On Sep 22, 2012, at 12:50 PM, Albert Reiner <arein****@tph*****> wrote: > Hello, > > only recently did I start to use howm, and it seems that this will > turn out a very valuable tool for me to use with just the right mix of > functionality and simplicity - thanks a lot! > > However, there are a few points that I am not so clear about, and my > fluency in elisp is rather poor.
