Thanks.

The todo list package was abandoned by the original inventor. Currently
I maintain it, that means keep it compiling. I don't use it myself and
I have no plans to extend it. The package supports various todo formats
and if someone wants to add another one feel free to send a patch.
Parsing a todo is pretty simple so there is almost no maintenance cost
to support another format. I see little reason to remove a format.
At the moment it supports:
//todo, //#todo, {todo}, {#todo}, (*todo*), (*#todo*)
And the same for 'done'.

IMHO it would be nice if the user can check what todo formats he likes
(e.g. list of checkboxes). By default it could be only {%todo},
{%done}.

Keep in mind that IDE directives only supports the curly bracket
comments.
