hi, thanks to the ever-so-cool "Get Bundle" bundle, i have the GTD bundle installed.
I think this will be very nice.
Thought: when items are marked "d", the command strips the first 5 characters and prefixes the line-item with "done"
this loses what type of item was being handled. I wonder if simply adding done in front might be better? then the "done" list, can also preserve the types of things done.
So... given EMAIL list about how great GTD is I'd rather see --> DONE: EMAIL list about how great GTD is Instead of --> DONE list about how great GTD is
Currently, this stuffs up the "Show..list" commands, as they detect the item types even if they have DONE in front of them. The regexp could either look for DONE and exclude those lines, or else require that the item type is the first character of the line.
Other comments...
1. I wonder if Buy could have a default syntax like: BUY ${1:new purchase} from: ${2:business} cost: $${3:99}
2. Because email exists as an item type on its own, it seems like "task" (should this be called TODO?) item should not have email as the default? TODO ${1:new email} Not sure what would be better.
3. I wonder if the "Show list" parser could detect e-mail addresses and wrap them in <a href=""></a> tags?
4. It would be nice, i think, if the "d" tab completion also post- fixed the item with the current date
--> DONE: EMAIL list about how great GTD is (7/6/06:7pm) Maybe done items could be parsed by done date and/or type of item and project file?
If the items were just dumped into a table with type, file, and date columns, there are nice little chunks of jscript that automagically make such tables sortable.
