Would it be possible to edit entries from the app on a tablet or phone?

Just as a thought esp. given the sheer frequemcy of my typos, could the app possibly be modified to allow one to edit entries to correct them without having to use the website from an app or phone? Also, I'm able to edit entries on our PC, as I've said before, however, am I mission something about whether such edition capability exists in the qpp, either on a tablet or the phone? I've never quite figured out how to do such editing, even from a browser on a tablet of a phone; is there a way I'd missed, or does no such method exist, necessitating that such editing be done solely from a PC? Is it a question of mobile website vs. full website, perhaps? If anyone knows, I'd really just be most eager to find out, many thanks, esp. if I missed something obvious, I'd also wondered about new topic rooms from the app, however, I did find that feature, at least, I'd missed that one for quite awhile, so I wouldn't put past likelihood missing any editing features on the app, or on a phrallypointone or tablet browser, that's everything for the moment, many thanks once again.

I was kinda wondering tat, actually, I sorta figured it might take a software mod to be able to edit entries from the app, I was just never sure, of course.

I second or third that opinion. I mostly use RP via the App. An edit function would be wonderful. I have had too many typos over the years that I don’t realize until after I hit the Post button. It’s frustrating not being able to fix my mistakes.

Capt Daniel Goodman I use the app on my iPad and iPhone. When I want to edit anything I go go on-line to Rally Point.com using Safari which is set to use Google as a search engine at the moment.

Capt Daniel Goodman - I just read a bit. However, the little I did read seems to be more about biology than IT. What's the specific reason you thought I'd be into this?

SGT (Join to see) - I realized, certainly, that you might have obviously wondered about that. Aside from your obviously being quite well-trained technically, which is certainly apparent, I have a very real, abiding, long-standing interest in biological automata theory, though I'd of course need to explain that in somewhat greater depth, before you might perhaps appreciate the basis for my said interest. Then, too, given that you apparently have serious interest in Linux generally, as well as are, quite clearly, one of the most technically sophisticated of those I've chatted with on here about comp sci (CS) and IT generally, I figured you might find the paper of interest from that standpoint as well. You might perhaps recall that, in the past, I'd sought any possible thoughts from you about a very specific technical problem which, despite my total perm disability, I try to devote a good deal of time to contemplation of, one I find esp. fascinating. I've sent in material in the past on the IEEE Working Conferences on Reverse Engineering (WCRE), as well as it's European counterpart, which goes by the acronym SANER. I've been very seriously considering, for a quite protracted period, how, if at all, one might possibly be able to apply serious unrelated efforts at decompilation and/or disassembly toward the reverse engineering of the genomic operating system. Now, I of course entirely grant that to be, certainly, a clearly monumental task. However, over the past few days, I've been researching various aspects of theoretical CS involving what are termed the lambda and pi calculus, sometines also called, collectively, n-calculus, which are functional programming theoretic constructs, that have been adapted, variously, as I've read, for use for a programming language called Haskell. That language has also been used for efforts, as I've read on the website http://www.arxiv.org, to create a quantum programming language, for which there have, in fact, been numerous efforts worldwide. Basically, my view, gleaned after some, and I know this is going to sound somewhat incredible, four decades of serious study, is that the bases of DNA and/or RNA are, in fact, qubits, and that all of genomics, as well as the resulting evolved quantum neuroscience of the brain, are, in fact, physical implementations of actual, biologically realized, quantum computing. Now, having culled out, at this point, by my estimate, some 500 papers over the past 40 yrs., I would obviously hardly expect to be able to synopsize my reasons for so thinking for you in the span of this specific text. However, nevertheless, good science, I find, tends to be where one finds it; that also being said, I try to collect minds, if you will, whom I think might perhaps have an interest in my whole effort, which many friends think, equal candor, that I might perhaps be somewhat bent and single-minded in my efforts to have pursued for as long, and doggedly, as I have. The whole effort began when I was an undergrad, and wrote a paper for a faculty member at the school I'd gone to for elec. engrg. (EE); the course was on philosophy of science, everyone was doing a paper on relativitity, or quantum mechanics, I, in what I'd hoped was a fit of perspicacity incarnate at the time, opted to do it on biological automata theory. The faculty member was a really brilliant guy, he was lost several years ago, he was an electromagnetic (EM) physicist, who apparently eventually became the chair of the humanities dept. at the school involved, which I obviously found a clearly unique combination. I've had the good fortune to be able to have been trained by numerous first-rate minds; as such, over the course of the ensuing four decades, I've made rather a study of minds I've encountered, and developed my own purely anecdotal and observational methodology for assessing their caliber, yours quite clearly on here being pretty near the top of the technical food chain in this group, by my estimate. As such, I thought you might perhaps quite seriously find my whole effort of at least sufficient possible interest, to have some thoughts and/or observations of use, as well as perhaps being something you might genuinely develop a technical interest in, simultaneously. I can completely understand that such an effort might obviously be totally removed from your typical day-to-day CS/IT existence; believe me, I completely anticipated that such might well be the case. Nevertheless, I merely thought I'd at least show you that one specific paper, at least to start, if only because my four-decade odyssey has carried me quite far afield into landscapes of physics with very serious possible overtones, at least to my mind, in CS/IT, incl. the fact that, in that specific paper, the diagram for the genomic regulatory network function call scheme for E. coli, I think I had actually seen in other references dealing with particle physics I could also send you. Now, obviously, all that being said, if the whole topic isn't necessarily your thing, as I'd said already, I can entirely realize that you obviously have your normal CS/IT existence to deal with, and I'm quite sure that must obviously be quite complex enough, by all means. However, if, perhaps, you might possibly see your way clear to follow Alice down this particular rabbit hole, I think you might, if nothing else, find it sufficiently technically illuminating to at least justify the effort of being willing to join me in the journey, you know? In any event, those were and are my basic reasons; such as they are. Candidly, as well, I might well find your advice and/or observations quite useful, as you are, as I'd said, quite knowledgeable, and, as such, I just thought you might find such a project of possible interest; I obviously have no idea quite yet what I'd actually do with it all, before my total perm disability, I'd had delusions of grandeur of one day possibly trying to develop it into a serious Ph.D. dissertation or, if you will, my magnum opus, as a hopefully publishable paper. I didn't know how much actual formal CS or digital design you'd actually done; however, I think I could certainly suggest various texts and/or papers along the way, should you find the topic at all to your intellectual taste, if you will. I'd be most eager to know your further thoughts on the topic, regardless; I do quite honestly think you might well find it of technical interest, certainly; please also realize, I completely realize you'd obviously have other things to do with your day besides helping me pursue my proverbial wild goose, if you will, so, certainly, there'd be no rush and/or imperative involved, if you've got time, great, if you're busy, also completely understandable, I appreciate your at least taking the time to look at the paper, in any event, as well, by all means, just answer whenever and/or if you have time, I realize something like this obviously is totally out of left field, of course, I just genuinely figured you might find it of possible interest, as I'd said, regardless, many thanks.

Capt Daniel Goodman - I appreciate you taking the time to write all above. However, as of now I'm narrowing my focus to music and IT related to my brand as of now. If you ever create or find something related to this that's easier to digest, I'd be more interested. However, with all the research I've been doing on other things, I don't want to reach that much on a particular topic unless its a book I'm reading. Thanks for reminding me how long its been since I've progressed in my current book.

SGT (Join to see) I entirely understand, I've had some interest in the idea I'd sent stuff in about, as you hopefully saw,. If you'd ever be interested, I'd be most eager to hear from you further, I'd just thought you might find the topic of possible interest, honest, many thamks in any event, of course.
