27 ;;; Commentary:
29 ;; Mode Description
31 ;; TODO is a major mode for EMACS which offers functionality to
32 ;; treat most lines in one buffer as a list of items one has to
33 ;; do. There are facilities to add new items, which are
34 ;; categorised, to edit or even delete items from the buffer.
35 ;; The buffer contents are currently compatible with the diary,
36 ;; so that the list of todo-items will show up in the FANCY diary
37 ;; mode.
39 ;; Notice: Besides the major mode, this file also exports the
40 ;; function `todo-show' which will change to the one specific
41 ;; TODO file that has been specified in the todo-file-do
42 ;; variable. If this file does not conform to the TODO mode
43 ;; conventions, the todo-show function will add the appropriate
44 ;; header and footer. I don't anticipate this to cause much
45 ;; grief, but be warned, in case you attempt to read a plain text
46 ;; file.
48 ;; Preface, Quickstart Installation
50 ;; To get this to work, make Emacs execute the line
52 ;; (autoload 'todo-mode "todo-mode"
53 ;; "Major mode for editing TODO lists." t)
54 ;; (autoload 'todo-show "todo-mode"
55 ;; "Show TODO items." t)
56 ;; (autoload 'todo-insert-item "todo-mode"
57 ;; "Add TODO item." t)
59 ;; You may now enter new items by typing "M-x todo-insert-item",
60 ;; or enter your TODO list file by typing "M-x todo-show".
62 ;; The TODO list file has a special format and some auxiliary
63 ;; information, which will be added by the todo-show function if
64 ;; it attempts to visit an un-initialised file. Hence it is
65 ;; recommended to use the todo-show function for the first time,
66 ;; in order to initialise the file, but it is not necessary
67 ;; afterwards.
69 ;; As these commands are quite long to type, I would recommend
70 ;; the addition of two bindings to your to your global keymap. I
71 ;; personally have the following in my initialisation file:
73 ;; (global-set-key "\C-ct" 'todo-show) ; switch to TODO buffer
74 ;; (global-set-key "\C-ci" 'todo-insert-item) ; insert new item
76 ;; Note, however, that this recommendation has prompted some
77 ;; criticism, since the keys C-c LETTER are reserved for user
78 ;; functions. I believe my recommendation is acceptable, since
79 ;; the Emacs Lisp Manual *Tips* section also details that the
80 ;; mode itself should not bind any functions to those keys. The
81 ;; express aim of the above two bindings is to work outside the
82 ;; mode, which doesn't need the show function and offers a
83 ;; different binding for the insert function. They serve as
84 ;; shortcuts and are not even needed (since the TODO mode will be
85 ;; entered by visiting the TODO file, and later by switching to
86 ;; its buffer).
88 ;; If you are an advanced user of this package, please consult
89 ;; the whole source code for autoloads, because there are several
90 ;; extensions that are not explicitly listed in the above quick
91 ;; installation.
93 ;; Pre-Requisites
95 ;; This package will require the following packages to be
96 ;; available on the load-path:
98 ;; time-stamp
99 ;; easymenu
101 ;; Operation
103 ;; You will have the following facilities available:
105 ;; M-x todo-show will enter the todo list screen, here type
107 ;; + to go to next category
108 ;; - to go to previous category
109 ;; d to file the current entry, including a
110 ;; comment and timestamp
111 ;; e to edit the current entry
112 ;; E to edit a multi-line entry
113 ;; f to file the current entry, including a
114 ;; comment and timestamp
115 ;; i to insert a new entry, with prefix, omit category
116 ;; I to insert a new entry at current cursor position
117 ;; j jump to category
118 ;; k to kill the current entry
119 ;; l to lower the current entry's priority
120 ;; n for the next entry
121 ;; p for the previous entry
122 ;; P print
123 ;; q to save the list and exit the buffer
124 ;; r to raise the current entry's priority
125 ;; s to save the list
126 ;; S to save the list of top priorities
127 ;; t show top priority items for each category
129 ;; When you add a new entry, you are asked for the text and then
130 ;; for the category. I for example have categories for things
131 ;; that I want to do in the office (like mail my mum), that I
132 ;; want to do in town (like buy cornflakes) and things I want to
133 ;; do at home (move my suitcases). The categories can be
134 ;; selected with the cursor keys and if you type in the name of a
135 ;; category which didn't exist before, an empty category of the
136 ;; desired name will be added and filled with the new entry.
138 ;; Configuration
140 ;; Variable todo-prefix
142 ;; I would like to recommend that you use the prefix "*/*" (by
143 ;; leaving the variable 'todo-prefix' untouched) so that the
144 ;; diary displays each entry every day.
146 ;; To understand what I mean, please read the documentation that
147 ;; goes with the calendar since that will tell you how you can
148 ;; set up the fancy diary display and use the #include command to
149 ;; include your todo list file as part of your diary.
151 ;; If you have the diary package set up to usually display more
152 ;; than one day's entries at once, consider using
154 ;; "&%%(equal (calendar-current-date) date)"
156 ;; as the value of `todo-prefix'. Please note that this may slow
157 ;; down the processing of your diary file some.
159 ;; Carsten Dominik <dominik@strw.LeidenUniv.nl> suggested that
161 ;; "&%%(todo-cp)"
163 ;; might be nicer and to that effect a function has been declared
164 ;; further down in the code. You may wish to auto-load this.
166 ;; Carsten also writes that that *changing* the prefix after the
167 ;; todo list is already established is not as simple as changing
168 ;; the variable - the todo files have to be changed by hand.
170 ;; Variable todo-file-do
172 ;; This variable is fairly self-explanatory. You have to store
173 ;; your TODO list somewhere. This variable tells the package
174 ;; where to go and find this file.
176 ;; Variable todo-file-done
178 ;; Even when you're done, you may wish to retain the entries.
179 ;; Given that they're timestamped and you are offered to add a
180 ;; comment, this can make a useful diary of past events. It will
181 ;; even blend in with the EMACS diary package. So anyway, this
182 ;; variable holds the name of the file for the filed todo-items.
184 ;; Variable todo-file-top
186 ;; File storing the top priorities of your TODO list when
187 ;; todo-save-top-priorities is non-nil. Nice to include in your
188 ;; diary instead of the complete TODO list.
190 ;; Variable todo-mode-hook
192 ;; Just like other modes, too, this mode offers to call your
193 ;; functions before it goes about its business. This variable
194 ;; will be inspected for any functions you may wish to have
195 ;; called once the other TODO mode preparations have been
196 ;; completed.
198 ;; Variable todo-insert-threshold
200 ;; Another nifty feature is the insertion accuracy. If you have
201 ;; 8 items in your TODO list, then you may get asked 4 questions
202 ;; by the binary insertion algorithm. However, you may not
203 ;; really have a need for such accurate priorities amongst your
204 ;; TODO items. If you now think about the binary insertion
205 ;; halving the size of the window each time, then the threshold
206 ;; is the window size at which it will stop. If you set the
207 ;; threshold to zero, the upper and lower bound will coincide at
208 ;; the end of the loop and you will insert your item just before
209 ;; that point. If you set the threshold to, e.g. 8, it will stop
210 ;; as soon as the window size drops below that amount and will
211 ;; insert the item in the approximate center of that window. I
212 ;; got the idea for this feature after reading a very helpful
213 ;; e-mail reply from Trey Jackson <trey@cs.berkeley.edu> who
214 ;; corrected some of my awful coding and pointed me towards some
215 ;; good reading. Thanks Trey!
217 ;; Things to do
219 ;; These originally were my ideas, but now also include all the
220 ;; suggestions that I included before forgetting them:
222 ;; o Fancy fonts for todo/top-priority buffer
223 ;; o Remove todo-prefix option in todo-top-priorities
224 ;; o Rename category
225 ;; o Move entry from one category to another one
226 ;; o Entries which both have the generic */* prefix and a
227 ;; "deadline" entry which are understood by diary, indicating
228 ;; an event (unless marked by &)
229 ;; o The optional COUNT variable of todo-forward-item should be
230 ;; applied to the other functions performing similar tasks
231 ;; o Modularization could be done for repeated elements of
232 ;; the code, like the completing-read lines of code.
233 ;; o license / version function
234 ;; o export to diary file
235 ;; o todo-report-bug
236 ;; o GNATS support
237 ;; o elide multiline (as in bbdb, or, to a lesser degree, in
238 ;; outline mode)
239 ;; o rewrite complete package to store data as Lisp objects
240 ;; and have display modes for display, for diary export,
241 ;; etc. (Richard Stallman pointed out this is a bad idea)
242 ;; o so base todo-mode.el on generic-mode.el instead
244 ;; History and Gossip
246 ;; Many thanks to all the ones who have contributed to the
247 ;; evolution of this package! I hope I have listed all of you
248 ;; somewhere in the documentation or at least in the RCS history!
250 ;; Enjoy this package and express your gratitude by sending nice
251 ;; things to my parents' address!
