  • Added feature to allow the user to quit when asked to confirm multiple changes. Now task asks "Proceed with change? (Yes/no/all/quit)".
  • Added feature #341 that makes explicit references to the task and taskrc man pages, both in the auto-generated .taskrc file and the version command output (thanks to Cory Donnelly).
  • Added feature - #310 that simplified and make clearer an error message that complained about things that were beyond user control (thanks to John Florian).
  • Fixed bug that was causing the 'completed' report to sort incorrectly.
  • Fixed bug #321 where all shell input was converted to lower case (thanks to Juergen Daubert).
  • Fixed bug #327 that allowed the removal of a due date from a recurring task.
  • Fixed bug #317 which colored tasks in the 'completed' report according to due dates, which are no longer relevant to a completed task (thanks to Cory Donnelly).
  • Fixed bug that was causing the 'completed' report to sort incorrectly.
  • Fixed bug #322 which failed to propagate rc overrides to shell commands.
  • Fixed redundant messages when exiting shell mode.
  • Fixed bug #333 which failed to display the ID of a duplicated task (thanks to Cory Donnelly).
  • Fixed bug #332 where task complained that the 'recur_ind' custom report column was invalid. It was misnamed in the documentation, which should have read 'recurrence_indicator'. Also, the 'tag_indicator' column was not mentioned anywhere (thanks to T. Charles Yun).
  • Fixed bug #319 that caused task to not properly detect the removal of a tag when obtaining confirmation from the user fora bulk modification (thanks to Cory Donnelly).
