JGA’s Applications

I’ve written an Adobe Air app for the task management system ToodleDo.  As of right now, it is a simple app that allows to you easily add tasks.  I have plans to let you view your tasks, but that won’t come for a little bit.

I copied the syntax for emailing tasks into ToodleDo.  You can read more about it here: http://www.toodledo.com/info/help_email.php.  Here’s the basic instructions:

• Priority - The default priority is “0 - Low”. To set a higher priority use the ! character as many times as necessary. Typing !! would give your task a priority of “2-High”.
• Due-Date - To set a due-date, use the # symbol and then type the due-date. For example: “#today” or “#Next thursday” or “#5/12/08″.
• Folder - To set the folder use the * symbol and then type the name of your folder. For example: “*ProjectA”.
• Context - To set the context use the @ symbol and then type the name of your context. For example: “@home”.

Each new piece must be separated by a space followed by the special character. Putting it all together, here are some example tasks that you could add:

Call Jim !! @phone #today
Finish the Report ! #next friday *ProjectA @work
Mow the lawn *Chores @home

ToodleAir will automatically grab your contexts and your folders, so it will try to autocomplete if you type the first few characters.

Adobe Air is required, you can get that here.
