Wouldn't we need to link the update to the 'upds relation of Task?
This does not quite work :(
(menu "Tasks"
(idForm ,"Tasks" '(choTsk) 'nr '+Tsk T '(may Delete) '((: nr))
(--)
(<grid> 2
"Name" (gui '(+E/R +Cue +TextField) '(nm : home obj) "Name" 40)
"Desc" (gui '(+E/R +TextField) '(dsc : home obj) 40)
"Update" (gui '(+TextField) 30)
(gui '(+Button) "Update"
'(new! '(+Update) 'dsc (val> (field -1))) ) )
(--)
(gui '(+Set +E/R +Chart) '((L) (filter bool L)) '(upds : home obj) 1
'( (U I) (with U (list (: dsc) )) )
'( (L U) (cond
(U (put!> U 'dsc (car L)) (and (; U dsc) U) )
(L (new! '(+Update) 'dsc (car L))))))
(<table> NIL NIL
'((NIL "Updates"))
(do 8
(<row> NIL
(gui 1 '(+View +TextField) 30)
)))))
