ToDoList 5.5 has been Released

5.5 sports a new Find Tasks dialog that allows searching on multiple attributes simultaneously eg. Find tasks having category 'a', allocated to 'b' and due before 'c'.

You can also choose whether two rules are 'OR-ed' together or 'AND-ed', with the one caveat that 'AND' always takes binds more tightly than 'OR'.

Consider the simple logic A AND B OR C. If you enter the rules exactly as shown then the result will be (A AND B) OR C. However, if what you wanted was A AND (B OR C) then you would need to set the rules up thus: A AND B OR A AND C.

What's New:

  • New Find Tasks dialog allows multiple attributes to be searched simultaneously
  • Due Time field
  • Task colouring extends to attribute columns
  • Better control of what attributes get exported/printed/etc
  • Multiple task dependencies (delimited by your regional list delimiter)
  • Undo/redo now concatenates edits of same type (within 5 second window)
  • Fixed multi-selected task display bug
  • Fixed filter bug
  • Fixed iCal exporter bugs
  • Fixed recurring task bug when completing via date or percent fields
  • Various minor UI 'improvements'

ToDoList now has its own resources page.

Most of the stuff I write is of a component nature rather than a fully fledged tool or application which is why this section may be a bit thin.
