I also found the command quite useful (e.g., when jotting down a note containing a date I write today's date with a shortcut and then shift forwards or backwards as needed).
But how is that better than calling the current date command and typing the number of days you want to shift forward, or minus that number of days otherwise? i.e. if I want something due 4 days from today, I would just do: "#" followed by "4" and Return. If I want something 4 days earlier than what it currently is set to, then I would do: "#" followed by right arrow, "-4" and then Return.
- Also for me the checkbox works in strange ways. It is
not consistent when the gtd window is updated after clicking in the checkbox; sometimes immediately, sometimes only after focus-out focus-in, and sometimes I must close the window and re-open it. But maybe I mis-interpreted something as usual
It would definitely require taking the focus away from the gtd window, but that's an issue with TextMate's caching behavior. What clicking the box does is change the file in the hard disk by commenting the line. I don't have much control over when TM will update its document. Usually taking the focus away from textmate and then back should definitely do it. You could write a little command to do that via applescript.
