Seems pythonw works fine if you add the "--standalone" option, but afraid going to 0.57 will not help with the spell check support. Could you share how you got the spell checker to work in the first place? I haven't managed that yet. Maybe we can ask Brendan to compile it in if we know how to install it in the build environment. > Second, are there key-bindings for list types (on Windows)?

There are menu options in the "format" menu, but no default keybindings assigned. You can configure an key binding if you use them often. > Third, I love the checkboxes, but it would be nice if there were more > options. Specifically, I'd really like something for "in progress".

Just a thought. I'd love [~] though... I've thought about it in the past, but so far I use tags to deal with status of tasks. Looking at your list of suggestions I can guess at the workflow, but not convinced these should be checkboxes. Sound more like tags that you may want to display as an icon. Is that correct ? Or are these really task like ?
