Removed

• Removed add date from line completion, ie, todo.sh ls 10[tab].

Fixed

• Properly replace date when replacing task with priority and date.
• Handle -h, shorthelp, and help when a Fatal Error happens.
• Fix todo_completion problem with Bash 3.1.

2.9.0 - 2012-04-08

Added

• Added tab auto-completion of projects and contexts from todo.txt and done.txt. Type @<Tab> or +<Tab> while entering a task.
• Added new listaddons command displays installed addons.
• List priorities within a range using listpri. For example, to see tasks prioritized A-B, use todo.sh listpri A-B

Fixed

• Fixed various cosmetic issues, bugs, and added developer test library enhancements.

2.8.0 - 2011-09-13

Added

• listpri/lsp now filters by term. For example, todo.sh lsp A book will only return tasks prioritized A with the word book in them.
• Added support for todo directory paths with spaces in them.
• Tasks with priority included and auto prepend date on (-t) get the date where expected.
• Smarter action completion messaging: do, pri, and depri all let you know if a task is already done, prioritized, or deprioritized.
• Made more parameters available to offer more control to custom actions (-c, -A, -N, -T)

Changed

• Improved portability for Dropbox or USB key users. If not specified, todo.sh checks for a config file in its own directory; default todo.txt location is todo.sh's directory.

• Exposed cleaninput() for use in addons
• Improved testing framework:
  • Better escaped input handling
  • Abstracted make_action function to test custom action behavior
  • Added tests for source code compliance

• listpri complains if specified priority is invalid
• Don't abort task listing when items contain certain escape sequences (\c \033)
• Condense whitespace ONLY whe task is quoted; automatically convert CRLF to space
• Don't delete | (pipe) from task input
• -+ and -@ no longer break task coloring if context or project appears at the end of the line

Added

• Added generalization of the PRI_X color support to all priorities
• Added highlighting of done, but not yet archived tasks via COLOR_DONE

Changed

• Cleanup: help messages, consistent output messages
• Exporting die() function for use in custom commands
• prepend and replace actions keep prepended date, append considers sentence delimiters
• Tests: several regression tests added

• Don't set sort command in default todo.cfg.

Fixed

• depri no longer wipes out tasks with more than just the priority in parentheses

2.2.0 - 2009-03-??

Fixed

• Added addto [DEST] "Text to add" will append text to any file in the todo directory, like ideas.txt or maybelater.txt.

• depri # removes priority from a task.
• rm # [TERM] or del # [TERM] will delete just the [TERM] from the task on line # in todo.txt.
• listfile [SRC] [TERM] or lf [SRC] [TERM] will list the contents of any text file in the todo directory, and filter by keyword [TERM].
• listcon (lsc) and listproj (lsprj) lists contexts and projects, respectively, that appear in todo.txt. (Requires gawk)
• On task deletion, line number preservation is on by default (known issue, leaves blank lines). Optional, can be turned off with -n option.
• Auto-archive on task completion is now on by default; can be turned off with -a parameter.

Changed
