todo list manager

Post by steve riley » Wed Dec 16, 2009 5:32 pm

Please refresh my memory. One of the hosts (I think Linc?) described a todo list manager he really liked and I forgot the name of it.

What was the name?

(Don't tell anyone but I'm considering actually getting something done next year.)

Thanks,

Steve

I have a to-do list manager. Been married to her for 25 years.

Dann's recommendation is a good one, but I have checked out a few command line todo managers, and I really like yokadi.

Strange name, but as a program is works well, has a nice display and feature set. I believe it would even bridge the gap a bit between Project Management Software and a ToDo list organizer. The tab completion is nice so you don't have to remember the commands or type them in fully each time. It uses a sqlite database as the back end so it is a little more involved than something that uses a simple text file. Tasque also seems nice if you want a GUI app that interfaces with Remember the Milk website if you use that. Personally, I haven't tried it, because I wanted the speed of a CLI app and the ability to keep it on my home server and just ssh in if connected to the internet and or use rsync to keep it synced between computers.

Here is the website. I know that there is a package both for Debian Unstable and Fedora.

Enjoy.
