Hi GTG users, I'm definitely a GTG fan and I would like to share with you the tweaks I use to interact with GTG. I just would like to mention first that I'm a newbie in Python programming (but a quite experienced script kidder;))
*Level 1: change the gtg_new_task CLI* I loved a lot the CLI of Task (from todo.sh) so I have rewritten the tg_new_task in order to take in arguments the subject and the text of the brand new task and create it with the fantastic GTG DBUS interface "new_task()". (TODO: handle and parse the dates and tags). Hence with a single command line, I can create the skeleton of a task. *Level 2: Email gateway" It is an interesting but very complex feature in Chandler: I would like to create a task with sending a message to a specific Inbox or with specific Subject prefix keyword. To do that with Thunderbird, I have created a Message Filter that move the corresponding message to a specific folder. Then I use the "mailbox alert" TB extension to execute a command line upon new message arrival... and in fact I use the above GTG CLI to create a new task with the message subject as task title ;) Using these techniques (well.. quite harebrained I have to admit), I can create tasks on my smartphone (sending emails) when I'm out of my office. When I'm back, TB filters the new messages and creates the correspondings tasks. TODO: with a better CLI parser, I could also specify due dates and tags parsing the email subject... If you are interested, I can send you the new gtg_new_task but the modifications are trivial... By the way, I also use the HTML export to get my task list on my iphone (via a webserver) but the process is not great. I would love to update the Export plugin to periodically export the task list to a TXT or HTML file... - Dav
