My "Dp_Libraries" has a mechanism for doing this. Not a "TODO" but that could be done in the same way. I use a custom HTML tag called "<dpDoc>" - I document all sorts of things with it not handled by CF natively: revision information, author information, plans (the equivalent of "TODO"), and some method-specific stuff (return and exception information). Information here: http://www.depressedpress.com/Content/Development/ColdFusion/DPLibraries/Art icles/Tutorial_DPCFCs/DPDocs.cfm Both CF and HTML ignore the tag so it works out well. I've got a documentation CFC that provides methods for extracting this information (and in the case of CFCs combining it with the standard CF introspection data). Another long URL: http://www.depressedpress.com/Content/Development/ColdFusion/DPLibraries/Doc umentation/DocViewer.cfm?Component=cfc_DepressedPress.Utility.DP_Documentati on Note that the documentation for all the CFCs is generated using this component. I've been exceedingly pleased with this system. All the code is open-source so you might get some ideas or find something worth ripping.
