This page lists the various translators that have been written to
transform Org into some format, and to turn some format into Org.

** Org-mode to XXX

   - [[http://www.cognition.ens.fr/~guerry/u/org2rem.el][From Org-mode to remind]] by [[http://www.cognition.ens.fr/~guerry/][Bastien Guerry]].
     
   - From Org-mode to Freemind by Marco Vezzoli, this is available in
     the contrib directory of the distribution.

** XXX to Org-mode

   - [[http://www.olafdietsche.de/palm/palm2orgmode.pl][From Palm TODO database to Orgmode]].  This Translator was
     written by [[http://www.olafdietsche.de/][Olaf Dietsche]].

   - From [[http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/5073][Remind to Org]] by Detlef Steuer.

   - From [[http://bitbucket.org/legoscia/of2org][OmniFocus to Org]] by Magnus Henoch.

   - From [[http://www.hogbaysoftware.com/products/taskpaper][TaskPaper]] to Org by Carsten Dominik.  A quite complete
     translation can be achieved by a compact Perl program:

     #+begin_src perl
       #!/usr/bin/perl
       /^(\t*)-(.*?)((@\w+ *)*)$/;
       @u=grep{$_ ne'@done'}(@t=split/ +/,$3);
       @v=@u?('',@u,''):();
       $t{$_}++for@u;
       $_="*"x(2+length$1).(@t==@u?" TODO":" DONE").$2.join(":",@v)."\n"if$&;
       s/^\w.*:\s*$/* $&/;
       END{printf "* Setup\n#+TAGS: %s\n",join' ',keys%t}
     #+end_src

     This program is quite unreadable because it resulted from a
     [[http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/6224/focus%3D6266][contest for the most compact translator]] - but it works very well
     anyway.


** Bi-directional
    
   Unfortunately nothing so far.
