Fan of Buttons

Movement

In history mode, swipe forwards and backwards through history. Use TwoStep to go back past those pages that refresh you into the current page. KEEP your finger on the screen when you move around the page or you will trigger a history swipe. In context mode, swipe forward and backwards through current context. LongPress anywhere on the main page opens current context. This longpress can be toggled to enable clipboard copying on the web page.

Contexts

ShortPress on list item opens page in browser. LongPress dialog: Annotate, Remove, Rename, Share. Annotate associates a note file with the node. In Annotate text window, touch window for keyboard, then save (s) or quit (x.) Share sends URL, title and annotation to email. "Manage Contexts" lists all contexts. LongPress dialog: New, Export, Import, Delete. Export creates contextName.moda to sdcard. These files can be imported into MoDa with Import.

Exporting Contexts

Contexts are exported to a plain text file in Android default external storage directory. Exports include nodes (title, url) and their annotations. You can share contexts by attaching them to an email.

Importing Contexts

Contexts are imported from the default external storage directory, the same directory they are exported to. Mo Da will import all context files found there, giving you a chance to rename any duplicate context names. These are plain text files. You should look at them in a text editor (try Amoeba if you don't have one) and make sure the imported URLs will be harmless.

Creating and Editing Context Files

Context files have this form:
node
(lines of annotation)
blank line
node
(lines of annotation)
blank line
...
node
(lines of annotation)
blank line
Nodes are simply:
Title Words[tab character]URL

You can create context files or edit them in a text editor either before importing or after exporting. Make sure the first node is on the first line. Make sure there is a blank line before all other nodes.

Blog Posts

Mo Da allows you to post to independent blogs. It comes with the example for "Poor Richard's Alchemy." These kind of blogs run Blink which runs on any Unix server. Hitting "p" takes you to the blog list.

If you use "c" to copy the url and title to a link in the clipboard, that clipboard entry will be pasted into your blog post. Otherwise, whatever else is in the clipboard, say, from another app you just copied something in, is pasted into the post. If nothing is in the clipboard, the post begins blank.

You can create new blog bookmarks by choosing Add-Edit in the blog context menu. Here you can enter a blog name for the list and enter the raw URL of the blog CGI you are using. $TITLE is for the title field, $TEXT is for the post field, $MONTH is 01-12 current month and $SECONDS is the Unix call used for filenames in some blogs.
