1. Command list

Diplay Help:

Just text ?

Control lists:

.. - output existing lists
.list_name - add or display list, i.e. .tasks. Also makes list "active".
. - display active list
.-- - clear tasks of the active list
.! - display completed tasks of the active list
.!- - clear completed tasks of the active list
.-list_name - delete list and all of its tasks

Control tasks:

any message - adds task to the active list
:any multiline message - add multiple tasks from multiline message
!task_number [task_number] - move task(s) task_number to complete tasks
-task_number - delete task task_number from list, i.e. -1 deletes first task
>task_number task_title - edit task task_number from current list, set it new title
^task_number list_name - move task task_number from current list to list_name list

Schedule tasks:

*task_number time or *task_number date time - set reminder for task task_number from active list to provided time or date/time

example: *1 22:04 - set reminder for task 1 from active list to 22:04 today.

.* - list scheduled tasks
