a simple todo list

[BowenM]

I was unable to find a "todo list" that I was satisfied with... so I wrote one. 

The idea is you just wire it in line with your code and write a constant to it with a todo note.  Wire it with "exit" command during program cleanup, and it will create a "todo.txt" in the directory of any project you have open.  If no projects are open it will prompt you with todo dialogue.  I plan on posting it to community, but thought I would get opinions and things to revise first.

Edit: Oh, to be clear I realize that the entire list won't be populated each run.  If that section of code doesn't get called, it won't fill it out.  That having been said, it will still tell me what vis have todo in it, and specificially the todo list will populate with the areas I'm working on at any given time.

Can you downsave it to 2012?

[BowenM]

Sure. Here it is in 2012

Thanks.  I'll check it out.  I currently use Outlook Tasks for my todo list.

In the "Add todo" case, you have the True/False cases backwards.

So I did. Thank you. Here is a fixed version. After having used it a bit, I'm not convinced this is the right solution.  As it turns out the "not populating in the list if the code isn't accessed during run" is kind of annoying.  I just don't have a better solution...

Yeah they even made it so you could write your own bookmark managers and on start pick which one.  The idea I guess is you can take the same information and represent it in a different way.  Or potentially interact with other task/project tracking programs.
