TaskPaper Universal Binary

Version: 1.0.3 || Release Date: 2007-11-12 || License: Shareware ($18.95) Developer: Hog Bay Software

For Mac users who want a simpler way to create lists. TaskPaper is a simple to-do list application that helps you stay organized. Unlike competing applications, TaskPaper is based on plain text files which offer you paper-like simplicity and ease of use.

TaskPaper makes it easy to create a list of your projects and their tasks so that you always know what needs to be done. It's simple to reorganize the list, create new items, mark items as done, and delete items that your finished with. You can also assign contexts (such as "home", "office", or "car") to your tasks so that you can later generate lists of all tasks assigned to a specific context.

@patlaj - Keep an eye out for the next version... maybe next month or two... development versions can be downloaded from my forums now. Among other things it will give you a number of ways to show all projects in a single list.

Am I missing something? I tried to use this for a few days, but dropped it. Should you be able to get a list of all projects without tasks? I really want that.

I do certainly like the idea. And I especially like that the files it creates can be edited in any text editor. But... I guess it's just not quite enough.

This is a great little program. I'm a big fan. It's nice and simple so you don't waste too much time getting it set up how you like.

HogBay is willing to provide an academic discount (25% off, as remarked at the forums for students, so that should alleviate the issue of cost to a certain extent.

Thanks for the heads up. I want to make it clear though that I am not simply after a free bit of software but instead something that has a price that reflects the product. I was very much keen on buying this, even though it is still in its infancy – I think it's a good product.

rossag - There is a Vim plugin that mimics TaskPaper available from the Hog Bay Software Products page (There is one for TextMate as well but TextMate costs money and it seems you are seeking a free alternative).

It's good but it's not $18.95 good, shame. Will have to find something else...

I use this every day at the moment and find it really good. It's simple beyond belief and seems to work well enough bar a couple of bugs here and there.

Pretty cool! I like the simplicity of the approach. Probably, I won't be able to implement my GTD workflow with this app, but it gets the job done for small lists.
