Specdoc and taskpaper

Testing RSpec
1

Hello there,
I was wondering if anyone had looked at taskpaper? [1] They’ve got a
vaguely yaml inspired format for todo lists.

It reminded me of specdocs. I wonder how much work it would be to
convert or build it in?

Anyone else interested in seeing this?

[1] TaskPaper: Plain text todo list app for Mac

I use task paper and love it. Definitely the fastest way to throw in
todo items. I wouldn’t call the format yaml-ish though. Here’s an
example:

This is a project:

  • This is a task @done

  • Another Task @context
    Another Project:

    • Task again
      Plain text

Words followed by a colon are a project.
Words following a hyphen are a task.
The @context following a task sets it’s context.
@done means it’s done.
Any other words are plain text.

I’ve been thinking of writing a todo app that had an export to
taskpaper function.

I use Toodledo myself. Works from anywhere, including iPhone, and
there’s even a command line client in Ruby for it. (I wrote it
myself, but it’s still pretty cool.)
