Ok, now the expansions are working and the list view isn't truncated
(but I see why it truncates three characters now).

Now the only problem I'm getting is that only done actions (those
with +) get listed in the List view. and nothing seems to show up in
the Active List view.

So if I've got a file that contains the following three lines:

-  WEB Create Stylesheet
-  WEB Write email script
+  WEB Write template

Then only the third line will appear in the list view and even it
won't appear in the Active list view.

I'm using the following contexts.gtd file:

*  PROJECT|p|*  ${1:new project}|*|990099
-  TASK|t|-  TASK ${1:new task}|TASK|006600
-  COMPUTER|m|-  COMPUTER ${1:computer task}|COMPUTER|660000
-  EMAIL|e|-  EMAIL ${1:person} re: ${0:subject}|EMAIL|996600
