It's simple: I've tried many (great for procrastinating) and haven't found another one that has the exact features I wanted. So I wrote my own.\n\nThis tool is based on [todo.txt](http://todotxt.org/) simplifying some concepts for enhanced usability and task management:\n\n- **Task prioritization**: is intuitively managed by rearranging tasks within the list — placing a task higher signals its importance.\n- **Contexts**: For grouping tasks with contexts, [VimWiki tags](https://github.com/vimwiki/vimwiki/blob/69318e74c88ef7677e2496fd0a836446ceac61e8/doc/vimwiki.txt#L1575) are utilized, offering a robust tagging system.\n- **Date and Context Filters**: Tasks can be filtered based on their due dates or associated contexts, making it easier to navigate and prioritize tasks.\n- **Archive Functionality**: Provides a method to archive completed tasks, keeping the main task list clean and focused.\n- **Recurring Tasks**: Inspired by [Graham Davies' todo.txt cron helper](https://github.com/abztrakt/ya-todo-py/blob/master/todo_cron.py), allowing for the creation and management of tasks that occur on a regular basis.\n\n## Syntax\nVimWiki todo lists have the following format:\n\n```\n- [X] implement 'archive' command :coding:\n- [ ] add some more info to the README\n    - [ ] add an intro\n    - [ ] add some quick examples\n- [ ] commit and push t:2022-05-01\n```\n\nIn this example, the first task is completed, and is decorated with the context 'coding'. The second task has two sub-tasks and the third tasks has a due date set with 't:2022-05-01'.\n\n## Usage\nHere are some quick examples how to use `todo`:\n\n- Add a task: `todo add take the car to the workshop`\n- List all tasks: `todo ls`\n- List tasks which contain the term 'car': `todo ls car`\n- List tasks grouped by context: `todo context` (you can also filter by term)\n- List tasks whose due date has past: `todo past`\n- List tasks that are due tomorrow: `todo tomorrow`\n- Edit the todo list with your default editor: `todo edit` (make sure the `EDITOR` env var is set)\n- Move all checked off tasks to the archive file: `todo archive`\n\nHave a look at all available commands with `todo help`.\n\n## Installation\nRun `make install` to install `todo` into `TODO_DIR` (defaults to `~/vimwiki`).\n\n## Recurring Tasks Helper\nTo automate the creation of recurring tasks, you can use the helper script `recur.py` as a daily cron job. This is best suited for people whose workstation runs at the same time every day anyway. For everyone else, [anacron](https://linux.die.net/man/8/anacron) might be the solution.\n\nRun `make install-recur` to copy the script into `TODO_DIR` and create a configuration file `recur.txt` in the same directory.\nThe configuration syntax follows a format inspired by [remind](https://linux.die.net/man/1/remind):\n\n```\n{Wed} Take out trash\n{Mon Wed Fri} backup filesystem\n{29} pay rent check every month on the 29th\n{1 15} do on 1st and 15th day of the month\n{Nov 29} :email: birthday card every year to someone\n{Nov 22 2007} Eat turkey\n{Nov 27 *5} Keep adding task for 5 days after event\n{Dec 01 +3} Add task 5 days before specified date\n```\n\n## Tests\n```\nmake test\n```\n\n## License\n\n[GNU General Public License v3.0](LICENSE)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fskoenig%2Fvimwiki-todo","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fskoenig%2Fvimwiki-todo","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fskoenig%2Fvimwiki-todo/lists"}
