Task Coach 1.2.29 - (todo manager to keep track of personal tasks and todo lists)

[FunkY]

Task Coach is a simple open source todo manager to keep track of personal tasks and todo lists. It grew out of a frustration that most task managers do not provide facilities for composite tasks. Often, tasks and other things todo consist of several activities. Task Coach is designed to deal with composite tasks. In addition, it offers effort tracking, categories, and notes. Task Coach is available for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and iPhone and iPod Touch.

Task Coach is licensed under the GNU General Public License version 3 or any later version and free to use for both individuals and companies.

Task Coach is developed by Frank Niessink and Jérôme Laheurte, with help of different people providing translations. If Task Coach is a useful product for you, please consider supporting the development of Task Coach. You can support further development by spreading the word, help translate Task Coach in your language, help develop new features and/or donate some money (to help recover costs; any amount is appreciated).

Enjoy, Frank Niessink and Jérôme Laheurte

Features

Task Coach currently (1.2.29) has the following features:

• Creating, editing, and deleting tasks and subtasks.
• Tasks have a subject, description, priority, start date, due date, a completion date and an optional reminder. Tasks can recur on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.
• Tasks can be viewed as a list or as a tree.
• Tasks can be sorted by all task attributes, e.g. subject, budget, budget left, due date, etc.
• Several filters to e.g. hide completed tasks or view only tasks that are due today.
• Tasks can be created by dragging an e-mail message from Outlook or Thunderbird onto a task viewer.
• Attachments can be added to tasks, notes, and categories by dragging and dropping files, e-mail messages from Outlook or Thunderbird, or URL's onto a task, note or category.
• Task status depends on its subtask and vice versa. E.g. if you mark the last uncompleted subtask as completed, the parent task is automatically marked as completed too.
• Tasks and notes can be assigned to user-defined categories.
• Settings are persistent and saved automatically. The last opened file is loaded automatically when starting Task Coach.
• Tracking time spent on tasks. Tasks can have a budget. Time spent can be viewed by individual effort period, by day, by week, and by month.
• The Task Coach file format (.tsk) is XML.
• Tasks, notes, effort, and categories can be exported to HTML and CSV (Comma separated format). Effort can be exported to iCalendar/ICS format as well.
• Tasks, effort, notes, and categories can be printed. When printing, Task Coach prints the information that is visible in the current view, including any filters and sort order.
• Task Coach can be run from a removable medium.
• Tasks and notes can be synchronized via a Funambol server such as My Funambol.

There is a todo-list application for iPhone and iPod Touch that can synchronize with Task Coach through the network, starting with version 0.73.2 of Task Coach. Main features are

• Hierarchical categories.
• Editing of task subject, description, dates and completed status.
• Tap on the task's led icon to mark it complete.
• Available in English and French.

Release 1.2.29 - October 3, 2011

This is a bugfix release.

Bugs fixed:

• If auto importing of Todo.txt files was turned on, but there was no Todo.txt file available for importing, saving would fail. (3410648)
• When the priority field gets focus, select all priority digits so the user can simply type a new number to overwrite the previous one. (3411384)
• When showing effort in detail mode, Task Coach would only consider the start of a period to decide whether to hide the period as a repeated period. Now it considers both the start and the end date and time.
• When editing multiple tasks at the same time, changing the priority would not automatically check the priority checkbox. (3414423)
• Don't reorder the contents of the task file randomly when saving the task file. This makes it possible to easily see the differences between versions of a task file using diff. (3412300)
