[Jprogramming] AOC data to iPad - was Re: Advent of code newbie

['Mike Day' via Programming]

So how do you capture the problem definition and your personal data-set for use 
on your iPad?  I hesitate to use copy & paste,  as pasting into a Jios edit session 
tends to crash my Jios installation (!),  while the data tends to be too large for C&P, 
and sharing to, say, Documents, seems to just save a link to the file,  not the file 
itself.  Not much use when I take it off line.  

Tx,

Mike
