Hi Jon, It is very simple. To make my explanation clearer, i will use ALL CAPS to indicate the components of the software.
The original usage of CONTEXT is to be used as "Contexts" (in GTD terms) like "@Phone, @Home, @work...etc. Since user cannot use more than 1 flags in FLAG, u can workaround by using the CONTEXTS as FLAG also. In this example, i will set my flags as days of the week, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday...etc. So, this is what you will see in your CONTEXTS list: errand Friday home John Michael Monday phone Ronald Tesco Thursday Tuesday Wednesday work The items on the list are arrange by alphabetical order. they are mixture of contexts and flags. To distingush them, i will add a prefix to each of them. so the end result is: @errand @home @John @Michael @phone @Ronald @Tesco @work =Friday =Monday =Thursday =Tuesday =Wednesday So now i know that those with the prefix of "@" are my contexts & those with the prefix of "=" are my flags & all of them live in the CONTEXT of MLO. This way, you can assign more than 1 flags to any tasks. Hope this is helpful. :-) On 5 October 2017 at 01:10, FischerPhoto <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Mok > Thanks so much for your response.
