Make simple to-do lists with TaskPaper With TaskPaper, you can make plain text lists of everything important to you, which will also be easily editable anywhere. TaskPaper also supports due dates. For these, you simply use a tag with the date within parentheses. For example, @due(1970-01-01) would set a task due Thursday, January 1, 1970. This date would be in the past, so it won't do you much good, but it works as an example.

• Fixed error when dragging into the sidebar when outline view is empty

The release frequency has slowed as I've taken a step back to work on some larger changes.

First, I've just finished restructuring TaskPaper's code so that I'm able to open source the model layer (see links below). This makes it possible for other scripters and developers to process TaskPaper files on macOS, iOS, and anywhere else where there's JavaScript.

Second, I'm now in the process of updating the user interface code to use Apple's new Swift programming language. This will put TaskPaper on a better foundation to keep up with whatever changes Apple brings in the future. It's also giving/forcing me to look through every line of code and fix all the dumb stuff that I did! I'm still a ways from done, but I'm making good progress.

Open Source Model Layer:

TaskPaper 3.3.1 – May 25, 2016 Download

• Clicking on task dash (to toggle @done) no longer scrolls to selected text

TaskPaper 3.3 – May 19, 2016 Download

Added Expand/Collapse Commands:

• Added View > Expand Items
• Added View > Collapse Items
• Added View > Expand All By Level
• Added View > Collapse All By Level

Hold down 'Option' key for a 'Completely' variant of each item.

Removed Redundant Commands:

• Removed View > Fold
• Removed Items > Indent
• Removed Items > Un-Indent

Get google drive for desktop. Please use the explicit Expand/Collapse commands for folding. Use 'Tab' and 'Shift-Tab' instead of the Indent and Un-Indent menu items. I think any short term pain this causes will make TaskPaper a more nimble and focused app long term.

Improved Item Movement in Filtered Views:

1. Moving items should never 'capture' hidden items as children.
2. No additional items should appear on screen when moving items.

Added New 'filtered' Item Handle State:

This state joins the existing 'Expanded' and 'Collapsed' states. Filtered state indicates that some children are visible and others are filtered out of the display. Click a filtered handle to expand it to show all children.

1. Expanded – Dim empty circle
2. Collapsed – Bright filed circle
3. Filtered – Dim filled circle

Other Changes:

• Improved alert messaging when opening invalid file links.
• Fixed leading spaces from being removed from pasted text.
• Fixed periodic broken 'Tag With…' toolbar popup menu state.

PlainTasks

An opinionated todo-list plugin for Sublime Text (2 & 3) editor

Installation

To install this plugin, you have two options:

1. If you have Package Control installed, simply search for PlainTasks to install.

2. Clone source code to Sublime Text packages folder.

Start a new todo-list

Bring up the command palette (it's ⌘ + shift + p in OS X and ctrl + shift + p in Windows) and type task and select Tasks: New document command.

NOTE: Save your todo files with todo, todolist, tasks or taskpaper file extensions or just name them TODO with no extension.For more portability you can use todolist.txt either as a filename or as suffix for any arbitrary filename.

Usage

NOTE: In Windows or Linux use ctrl instead of ⌘

☐ ⌘ + enter or ⌘ + i: new task

☐ ⌘ + d: toggle task as completed.

☐ ctrl + c: toggle task as cancelled on Mac. alt + c on Windows/Linux.

☐ ⌘ + shift + a will archive the done tasks, by removing them from your list and appending them to the bottom of the file under Archive project

Casino marker definition. ☐ ⌘ + shift + o will archive in Org-Mode style, removing the entire subtree after cursor and appending it to new file next to original one, e.g. if original is filename.TODO then new would be filename_archive.TODO

☐ ⌘ + shift + u will open the url under the cursor in your default browser, other than http(s) schemes must be enclosed within <>, e.g.

☐ Anything with colon at the end of the line is a project title, you can also nest projects by indenting them.

☐ You can write plain text as notes or descriptions wherever you want. Use _ or * for italic and bold just like in Markdown.

☐ You can add tags using @ sign
You can place cursors on tags, click right mouse button and Filter by tags under cursors:pending tasks with selected tags will remain visible (and their notes and projects they belong to), but everything else will be hidden/folded; to unfold all press ⌘+k, ⌘+j or ⌘+k, ⌘+0

☐ You can navigate tags in current document via ⌘+shift+r.

☐ PlainTasks comes with a simple snippet for creating separators, if you feel that your task list is becoming too long you can split it into several sections (and fold some of them) using this snippet:

-- and then tab will give you this: --- ✄ -----------------------

☐ Completion rules (ctrl+space or alt+/ to see list of them):

• type t, press tab — it'll become @today — this one is highlighted differently than other tags;
• c, tab — @critical;
• h, tab — @high;
• l, tab — @low;
• s, tab — @started — press tab again and current date will be inserted, when you'll complete or cancel a task with such tag, you'll know how many time has passed since start; if you have to change done/cancelled/started time, then you can recalculate the time spent on task by pressing tab while cursor is placed on a tag;
• tg, tab, tab work in the same manner as s, but inserts @toggle(current date) — so you can pause and resume to get more correct result when done/cancel; each toggle tag is either pause or resume depending on its place in sequence;
• cr, tab, tab — @created(current date) (⌘ + shift + enter creates a new task with this tag);

• d, tab — @due( )
  If you press tab again, it'll insert current date, same for @due( 0).
  You can type short date (similar to OrgMode's date prompt, but not the same) and then press tab to expand it into default format.
  Short date should be _@due(year-month-day hour:minute)__
  Dot can be used instead of hyphen, but should be consistent _year.month.day

  • year, month, minute, hour can be omitted:

    Notation	Meaning
    @due(1)	1st day of next month always
    @due(--1)	1st day of current month always
    @due(5)	5th day of current month (or next month if current day is 5th or older)
    @due(2-3)	February 3rd of current year or next one
    @due(31 23:)	31st day of current/next month at 23 hours and minutes are equal to current moment
    @due(16.1.1 1:1)	January 1st of 2016 at 01:01 @due(16-01-01 01:01)

  • relative period of time starts with a plus sign or two
    __+[+][number][DdWw][h:m]__ — number is optional as well as letter d for days or letter w for weeks.

    Notation	Meaning
    @due(+)	tomorrow as well as @due( +1) or @due( +1d)
    @due(+w)	one week since current date, i.e. @due( +7)
    @due(+3w)	3 weeks since current date, i.e. @due( +21d)
    @due(++)	one day since @created(date) if any, otherwise it is equal to @due(+)
    @due(+2:)	two hours since current date
    @due(+:555)	555 minutes since current date
    @due(+2 12:)	2 days and 12 hours since current date

☐ You can create a link to a file within your project by prefixing the file name with a dot and (back)slash like: .filename or ./another filename/.
The line and column can be specified by colons: .filename:11:8.
In SublimeText 3 you can specify a symbol inside that file by using > character like: .filename>symbol.
In SublimeText 2 you can specify a text inside that file by using inch characters like: .filename'any text'.
Pressing ctrl + o (alt + o on Windows/Linux) will open the file in Sublime and scroll to specific position if any.
Also in SublimeText 3 link may point to directory, open such link will add the directory to current project (sidebar).
In addition, Markdown and 'wiki' (Org-Mode, NV, etc.) styles are supported as well, examples:

☐ To convert current document to HTML, bring up the command palette ⌘ + shift + p and type Tasks: View as HTML — it will be opened in default webbrowser, so you can view and save it.
Tasks: Save as HTML… ask if you want to save and if yes, allow to choose directory and filename (but won't open it in webbrowser).

Editor Useful Tools:

☐ Use ⌘ + control + up/down (ctrl + shift + up/down on Windows) to move tasks up and down.

PlainTasks is an opinionated plugin, which means that it is highly configured to look in a specific way, but this does not mean that you can not customize it. If you feel that something does not look right and you want to change it, you can easily do it in your user settings file.

Go to Preferences → Package Settings → PlainTasks and open Settings - User, there you can override all the default settings, to get an idea you can take a look at Settings - Default.

Here is a list of PlainTasks' specific settings:

¹ Icon value can be 'dot', 'circle', 'bookmark', 'cross', ', or custom relative path to existing png file,e.g. 'Packages/User/my-icon.png'.

Changing color scheme

If you don't like colors used in bundled schemes just copy any .hidden-tmTheme from PlainTasks to your User directory, change colors and paste the code below in your user settings file:

N.B., sometimes you have to restart Sublime Text to apply changes made in tmTheme file.

N.B., scope_past_due, scope_due_soon, and scope_misformatted settings can assign any scopes defined in tmTheme file, e.g. you can set 'scope_past_due': 'my.own.super.expired.whatever' and then just add style definition in tmTheme for this scope.

Taskpaper Compatibility

If you need to keep your files compatible with Taskpaper, go to Preferences → Package Settings → PlainTasks and open Settings - User, thenadd these settings to the json file:

Spell check

It is build-in feature of Sublime, you can toggle spell check with F6.
For convinience, you may add bullets in list of ignored words into Preferences → Settings - User, e.g.

[BONUS] Custom todo icon

PlainTasks comes with a custom todo icon that you can find in the icons folder. You can assign it to your todo files to give them a better look and distinguish them from other plain text files. Google and find out how to assign a custom icon to a file type in your operating system.

[BONUS] Custom Statistics

Statistics of current file are represented in status-bar, based on stats_format, which is '$n/$a done ($percent%) $progress Last task @done $last' by default — as you can see it's just a string containing special directives (see table bellow) and regular chars.

So you can customise it as you like, by adding to Settings - User, e.g.

Copy statistics

Bring up the command palette and type Tasks: Copy Statistics.
