- 05:42 PM Bug #394: built-in implementation for uuid generation genereats rfc 4122 non-conformant uuids
- (according to Helmut, on IRC) uhm. your non-uuid/uuid.h std::string uuid() implementation is buggy. as it generates random uuids the first digit of the third block should be the constant digit 4. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uuid Version 4...

- 05:44 PM Bug #392 (Rejected): countdown is upsidedown
- Countdowns have always been counted negative, for example http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/shuttle/launch/countdown101.html It makes perfect sence to have them negative Countdown is at -3 ...
- 05:43 PM Feature #390: Time stamp added to annotations
- Associated with issue #189 -- if we implement #390 first, then #189 could directly follow: ...
- 05:26 PM Feature #390 (Assigned): Time stamp added to annotations
- 12:23 PM Feature #391: legendary enhancement
- some related discussion *"here":http://taskwarrior.org/boards/3/topics/show/437*
- 11:32 AM Bug #392: countdown is upsidedown
- and while you're in there, would anybody mind if we removed the space between "-" and "count" ? Could we standardize on "no space" between the symbol and the number ?
- 11:26 AM Bug #393: color.project.none= and color.due.none= directives don't work
- and they should, because this can be important info. does it work for anyone else ? or am I just using the wrong syntax ? (color.pri.none= works just fine)
- 11:20 AM Bug #392: countdown is upsidedown
- shouldn't the countdown column display time remaining in positive integers, and those that have past in negative ? A task due next week is due in 7 days, not -7.
- 11:16 AM Feature #391: legendary enhancement
- Where "task cal" features a smart legend, showing color-choice examples in a row, it would be great to do the same thing with ALL color choices, in a similar fashion. It might have a similar rc configuration, to control appearance at the end of re...

- 01:07 PM Feature #390: Time stamp added to annotations
- In addition to dates, it would be nice to have timestamps added to annotations as well. For me, when I need to know the day something happened I nearly always want to know what time it happened, too. I've been faking it like this: ...

- Intended behavior.

- 10:01 PM Feature #385: incorporate colortest
- Just as a compliment to the help-file makers; nice work ! I only just de-coded the built in reference, very nice ! where it says "Try running 'task color white on red'" it should say Try running 'task color white on red'.. no really.. TRY IT!

- 06:39 PM Feature #375 (Closed): Coloring of tasks due today
- 06:38 PM Feature #389: color.now= parameter

- 11:57 AM Feature #375: Coloring of tasks due today
- Glad you have it. I just love to tell folks to RTFM, particularly after the effort put into the FM. Regarding the re-opening of this issue: If this were originally a bug closed for 1.9.0, and a problem were found, then re-opening and reassignin...
- 10:59 AM Feature #375: Coloring of tasks due today
- Excellent! and _darn_ those man pages are good ! color.calendar.today=black on cyan Color of today in calendar. is the parameter in question, but what I was musing about was whether that rule might be replaced with a directive like color....
- 01:04 AM Feature #375: Coloring of tasks due today
- The new cal colors are defined in .taskrc, and all are properly named "color.xxxxxx". If you regenerated a sample .taskrc, as discussed recently, then you already have them. If not, just run: ...
- 12:39 AM Feature #375: Coloring of tasks due today
- I admit that I'm not sure where Fredde's new cal colors are defined, but I think they should be in with the general population. There will be a real value in color consistency between views; cal and report (and those to come)
- 12:35 AM Feature #375 (In progress): Coloring of tasks due today
- sorry for re-opening, but I'd like to suggest that this good idea go farther, and be re-imagined not as "today" but "now", so that is it contextual. Looking at the cal output ? then both this datenumber and this monthnumber qualify as "now". Looki...

- 11:16 PM Feature #330: new color parameter; invert
- This is the same effect I see when selecting a line in my terminal; the colors invert.
- 10:23 PM Feature #388: per-field coloration rules
- Choosing the right colors is extra hard when multiple rules can apply, but only one (or two) will take effect. The existing color directives can be triggered by any number of things, and I think we should consider extending the existing behavior w...

- 03:45 PM Bug #387: Space character affects pattern matching on ranges of task ids
- I'm not sure if this is new or not, but under v1.9.0 a space character between two comma-delimited task ids causes task to misinterpret my intentions. Compare the two tries below: ...

- 05:55 AM Feature #386: Recuring holidays
- It'll be nice if users could BLOCK a certain time period in their calendars just visually (ex holidays from 1st to 5th), without scheduling due dates for tasks in that period and make recurrence holidays ex. Christmas Day. Ex.: holiday.christmas...
- 01:20 AM Feature #385: incorporate colortest
- for task theming, the tool colortest is perfect. try this; get colortest (from.. ) and run; $ task colors and then immediately run colortest -w -r you will see that the output directly maps to the "task colors" color cube, and sho...
- 12:15 AM Feature #384: use rc colors (if any) for "projects", "tags" and "summary" reports
- this is a great place to see how your color scheme really maps to your tags and projects.

- i got an odd message from task. not sure if it is me being dense. in the below, task 252 already exists and is not the parent. so if you type: $ task 252 proj:blah Task 252 is a recurring task, and all other instances of this task may be ...

- 06:28 PM Bug #381: Deletion of recurring tasks behaving strangely
- Yikes. Here's what happened: the first question task asked was "delete 80?", answered "y". 80 was deleted. Task then asked if the sibling tasks should also be deleted, answered "y". Given that a sequence of 6 task ids was provided, the answer...
- 06:14 PM Bug #380 (Closed): Configuration values can no longer be commented out
- Added a comment reiterating this behavior.
- 06:09 PM Bug #380: Configuration values can no longer be commented out
- What you are seeing here is that a few configuration variables (such as nag) in 1.8.5 and earlier had no defaults, and now they do. Take a look at the appropriate man page (man taskrc) and it explains how you can have the default value, an overri...
- 03:29 PM Bug #381: Deletion of recurring tasks behaving strangely
- In v1.90 beta 3, I deleted a task that was set to recur daily for a week. It seems that the 'delete all pending recurrences' went a bit haywire. ...
- 02:35 PM Bug #380: Configuration values can no longer be commented out
- Previously, commenting out the nag line in .taskrc would prevent nag messages. After 1.90, this doesn't work -- commenting it out causes the nag to use the default value, set in Config.cpp std::string Config::defaults. This might be confusing ...

- 08:00 PM Feature #379: Allow customizable column header color
- Currently the column headers are all underlined, and there is no way to change that color. There should be a color.column.header configuration setting to override the color.
- 07:34 PM Feature #378: Allow sorting on attributes, not just columns
- Task currently limits sorting to those columns in the report. This should be extended to allow sorting on any attribute.

- 12:43 PM Bug #377 (Closed): 'started' should be an alias for 'start'
- I was aware that the alias could be added, although I don't know what version introduced it (1.8.5 maybe). I was suggesting that we add it as a default alias, but as you point out, that could very well collide with a report definition. I _almo...

- 12:11 PM Feature #376 (Closed): Countdown column in reports similar to Age
- Done
- 12:10 PM Feature #375 (Closed): Coloring of tasks due today
- Done
- 12:09 PM Feature #376: Countdown column in reports similar to Age
- Sobbie suggested to have a "Countdown" column in reports similar to the age column. The countdown column should show the days left until a task due or how many days a task has been overdue. See http://taskwarrior.org/boards/6/topics/show/374
- 12:06 PM Feature #375: Coloring of tasks due today
- Sobbie suggested in the forums to have the possibility to colorize tasks due today differently. See http://taskwarrior.org/boards/6/topics/show/374

- 08:30 AM Cygwin 1.7 build problem
- Task 1.9.0.beta2 will not build on a fully patched Cygwin 1.7. This will be addressed in a beta3 build, shortly. Cygwin 1.7 has relocated the ncurses include files, and in doing so, invalidated an already-poor assumption about the location. B...

- 07:07 AM Feature #373 (Closed): display .xpm icons

- 05:53 PM Feature #324 (Assigned): Consider optional integration of readline
- Readline support is trivial to add to the code - it's more of a packaging effort.

- 04:29 PM Feature #157: Naked reports
- I think the perfect handle for that is to comment out, or delete, the report.foo.labels line in .taskrc; . # report.list.labels=ID,Pri,Description,Project,Tags,Due
- 03:36 PM Feature #156: diff style output for the task undo command
- Back to me ;-) Feel for it and Paul will be busy with the interactive version building lego bricks.
- 03:27 PM Feature #157: Naked reports
- Guess it will be possible to do this with the hooks.
- 02:48 PM Support #107 (Closed): upload man page output to wiki

- Retargeted to 2.0.x
- 10:14 AM Feature #373: display .xpm icons
- These are ascii icons from long ago, seen in ancient Windows systems, old window managers and occasionally adorning emacs buffers. This occurred to me on seeing emacs orgmode screenshots featuring tiny icons ! like checkboxes, bullets and all sort...
