Usage

After enabling this plugin, you will see the checklist appear in the right sidebar.

Any block of checklist items you tag with #todo will appear in this sidebar.

You can complete checklist items by checking them off in your editor (e.g. - [ ] -> - [x]) or by clicking a checklist item in the sidebar which will update your .md file for you
