Tdo

Terminal based todo app for managing today's tasks with gentle reminders.

Commands

We will first add three tasks – two for today and one for tomorrow:

foo@bar:~$ tdo add "Athos"
foo@bar:~$ tdo add "Porthos"
foo@bar:~$ tdo add "Aramis" --for tomorrow

Using the ls command we will see that Athos and Porthos both need doing today:

foo@bar:~$ tdo ls

However as Aramis was added as tomorrow's task, we won't see it until our system clock changes to tomorrow – unless we use the ls upcoming command to see every task after today:

foo@bar:~$ tdo ls upcoming

We've just realised that we don't need the Porthos task any more, so we can go ahead and remove that (we can use the ls command to find its unique ID but assuming it's a fresh copy it will be 2):

foo@bar:~$ tdo rm 2

We've also realised we prefer the fourth Muskateer so we'll replace Athos with D'Artagnan:

foo@bar:~$ tdo edit 1 "D'Artagnan"

And as we're exceptional at what we do, we'll mark D'Artagnan as completed which we can later validate with the aforementioned ls command (in the unlikely event we've made a mistake we can revert that with the mark <id> incomplete command):

foo@bar:~$ tdo mark 1 complete

Sometimes it's nice to be randomly assigned a task so you don't always pick the most favourable ones – for this use the task command a randomly picked task will be assigned to you.

foo@bar:~$ tdo task
