doto is a really simple todo.txt manager written in Rust.
I like todo.txts but I also like a little bit of management lol.
All todo files are plaintext .md files that look like this:
# 2023-05-24
- [x] buy belinda a gift (2023-05-23)
- [ ] train tickets on sunday
- [ ] respond to lily
## pgMagic
- [ ] fix SQL parsing bug
- [>] get licence checks working (2023-05-28)
They will open in your $EDITOR or vim if you haven't defined it
You can style the text todo files however you would like as long as the task begins with - [ ] (to enable task counting and moving capabilities)
The files are saved in your $DOTO_PATH directory or ~/.doto. You can sync this to git or do whatever your want with it.
Open a combined view of the last 4 and next 3 days:
$ doto
# 2023-05-20

# 2023-05-21

# 2023-05-22

# 2023-05-23
- [>] (2023-05-24) buy coffee
- [>] (2023-05-24) determine best coffee retailer
- [>] (2023-05-24) another thing
- [x] with completed subtask

# 2023-05-24
- [ ] reply to lily
- [ ] get gift for belinda
### doto
- [ ] publish doto on homebrew
- [ ] make a screen recording for doto
- [x] better help screen?
- [ ] tweet about doto
### japan
- [ ] find passport
---
# 2023-05-25
- [ ] test
---
# 2023-05-26

You can edit these tasks/move them around in the combined view.
Exiting your $EDITOR (with write) will save each section seperated by --- into the relevant todo date file.
This makes it easy to find a history of tasks on specific dates using the other commands:
Open today's todo with
$ doto today ($ doto now or $ doto t also work)
Move all previously undone tasks to today
$ doto --undone
Open tomorrow
$ doto tomorrow ($ doto tom)
Open any day in the current week:
$ doto tue
Open any day this month:
$ doto 21 (to open the 21st this month)
Open a specific date:
$ doto 2010-12-24
