A curses-based application for managing todo.txt files.
A lot of the features are based on how todotxt.net handles things. I really liked the overall design of the application, just not the fact that it didn't run in my linux terminal. To solve this, I decided to roll my own using Ruby and Ncurses. There was already a robust library for handling todo.txt files, and Ncurses was something I'd been meaning to learn for a while.
Supports Ruby >= 2.0.0
Grab the gem:
gem install todo-curses
Then you'll probably want to make an alias in your .*rc file. Here's mine:
alias t="todo.sh"
alias tt="vim ~/dev/todo/todo.txt"
alias ts="cd ~/dev/todo;./save.sh;cd -;t archive"
alias ttt="todo-curses ~/dev/todo/todo.txt"
This gives three ways to interact with the todo.txt file, depending on the task at hand. Because todo-curses is still in the experimental phase, I use Vim for my day-to-day work.
- Open todo.txt files and view a scrollable list of items
- Move to the next item with
j - Move to the prev item with
k - Create new items with
n - Toggle done / not done state with
x - Move priority down with
shift+j - Move priority up with
shift+k - Completed tasks are archived to done.txt on exit
