Nice idea, but sometimes we're really overcomplicating things. I just 
use a bookmark, or note where I left in the title or the text, and then 
shift the due date to "next day" or "next week" whenever I want to 
continue reading.


If you really want to check the task off to document that you done it, 
you can also do it with an "alternative complete".


The online help explains it as follows:

Alternative complete is a way to complete a task with some additional 
actions. To use alternative complete instead of simple task complete 
just hold down the Ctrl key while you check the task with a mouse click 
or with the space bar.


Right now the following additional actions are performed on alternative 
complete:


1) A completed copy of the task is created instead of the original task 
completion
2) The original task is moved to the end of the branch (if you completed 
it in the Outline) or to the end of the current list (if you completed 
it in the To-Do).

[MLO] Repetitive task

[arnyeinstein]

Hi
Is it possible to have a task that has to be repeated n times without copy 
the task itself n times?

For example, I want to read the 15 chapters of a book. Instead of having 15 
subtasks to the task "Finish book", just one task that is newly generated 
every time I finish a chapter.
There is no deadline for this task.

Cheers

Renger
