Installation Help Windows 8

I have searched through the forum and have tried the suggestions made but have been unable to get Cygwin to
point at todo.sh.

I am running Windows 8 and have tried the variations of:
chmod +x todo.sh
chmod +x users/admin/downloads/todo.sh

Is there a tutorial or help doc that is somewhere between "Step 1 Turn on Computer" and the "cd to directory
and make todo.sh executable"?

Google add-on Google tasks with dates

I've been playing with the Google add-on to sync my todo.txt with Google tasks and I was wondering does
anyone know how to get due dates from Google tasks to show up in todo.txt?
If I just add the date to a task, like with the schedule add-on Google doesn't see that as a date.  
What I want is for Google to see the due date of a task and put a notice on that day in the calendar.

I found a script called Tasky on GitHub that does what I want, the problem is that if I then use the todo.txt
add-on to pull from Google, todo.txt can't read the due date and the task is not pulled.  I think this is
because Tasky puts the due dates on a second line.  Without the due date todo.txt pulls the tasks just fine.

Ideas anyone?

Re: Todo.txt for Android - Cannot get past Dropbox authentication

Solved.

I installed the dropbox app, and all is well.  I don't recall seeing this as a sys requirement anywhere, only
that a dropbox account is required.

Thanks,
Aaron

Todo.txt for Android - Cannot get past Dropbox authentication

Script to add ToDo.txt tasks to remind for Linux

This will probably not be useful to many people on this list, so sorry for the spam, but someone may find it helpful.
I am running Linux and use a program called remind in conjunction with another program called gxmessage to
generate pop-up reminders of things that are really important.

I got tired of having to copy and paste items from my todo.txt file into my reminders file so that I could get a
pop-up reminder as well as just having the todo.txt list shown on my desktop.

I wrote this pretty simple BASH script, which I'm sure someone with more coding experience than I have can
improve greatly.
(In fact, I hope someone does.)

#!/bin/bash
cat -n ~/Dropbox/todo/todo.txt
read -p "Enter the line number of the task to add to remind " task
sed -n "$task"p ~/Dropbox/todo/todo.txt
message=$(sed -n "$task"p ~/Dropbox/todo/todo.txt)
read -p "What is the trigger date of the reminder?:" triggerdate
read -p "H0w many days in advance should this appear?" daysadvance
read -p "What is the trigger time of the reminder?:" triggertime
echo "REM $triggerdate +$daysadvance AT $triggertime MSG $message %b (in
[_countdown(trigdatetime()-current())])" >> ~/Reminder-files/reminders-general

ToDo.txt and popup reminders

Hi Folks,

I was wondering what you all use for reminders?
I've been using remind and have it set to pop-up with a message when it is time to do something.
I was thinking that it would be really cool if I could incorporate my ToDo.txt file into reminder.  That would
require pulling the items with due dates out of ToDo.txt and converting them to REM format.
I don't really have the skills to write the add-on to do that and I was wondering if anyone else might be
interested in giving it a shot?

I'm also having addin trouble - not in addins list

Hi Guys,

I've been trying to set up ToDo.txt Google Task Sync.

The code is at:
https://github.com/amcintosh/todo.txt-cli/blob/google-tasks-addon/.todo.actions.d/google

I have the Google API Client Library installed and put my Client_ID and Client_Secret in the python script.

Specifically I'm having several strange problems:

1. The addon does not appear when I run t listaddons in the terminal.  (I have other addons that do appear however.)
This means that when I try to run the script from within ToDo.txt, I get an error message telling me which
commands ToDo.txt will accept.

2. I managed to get the script to go to Google and let me authorize it, by typing a command twice.
Specifically, the command to push my todo list to Google is: google push all
I had to type google push push all

3. If I try to run the script by itself I get an error message about usage unless I type a double command: google
push push all or google pull pull
Now the really weird part is that if I do invoke the script I get this error:

$ ~/todo.actions.d/google pull pull
Pulling from Google Tasks
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/home/john/todo.actions.d/google", line 265, in <module>
     main(sys.argv[1:])
   File "/home/john/todo.actions.d/google", line 252, in main
     pull()        
   File "/home/john/todo.actions.d/google", line 143, in pull
     call([os.environ.get("TODO_FULL_SH"),"archive"])
   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 493, in call
     return Popen(*popenargs, **kwargs).wait()
   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 679, in __init__
     errread, errwrite)
   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1249, in _execute_child
     raise child_exception
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'rfind'

or this error:

  File "/home/john/todo.actions.d/google", line 265, in <module>
     main(sys.argv[1:])
   File "/home/john/todo.actions.d/google", line 258, in main
     push("todo")
   File "/home/john/todo.actions.d/google", line 210, in push
     call([os.environ.get("TODO_FULL_SH"),"archive"])
   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 493, in call
     return Popen(*popenargs, **kwargs).wait()
   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 679, in __init__
     errread, errwrite)
   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1249, in _execute_child
     raise child_exception
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'rfind'

Do any of you have this addon working?

Thank you for reading!  It would be great to get this working.

Problems implementing the projctview addon - some suggestions please?

I'm having a problem with implementing addons, specifically projectview in this case. I have not tried
others yet, but I mean to see what's out there and try some.

When I run: ./todo.sh projectview from the /todo folder I get:

Usage: todo.sh [-fhpantvV] [-d todo_config] action [task_number] [task_description]
Try 'todo.sh -h' for more information.

If I run: ./todo.sh listaddons
Nothing returns.

This is a new installation of todo.txt. I can add and remove and archive items successfully. I've only been
playing with it for a day or so.

I've provided some details and I was hoping someone could help me understand what I have done wrong.

Here's the portion of my todo.cfg file that I think is relevant. NOTE: I have adjusted the "TODO_DIR" and "TODO_ACTIONS_DIR":

# === EDIT FILE LOCATIONS BELOW ===
# Your todo.txt directory
export TODO_DIR="/Users/miked/Documents/todo"
#export TODO_DIR=`dirname "$0"`

# Your todo/done/report.txt locations
export TODO_FILE="$TODO_DIR/todo.txt"
export DONE_FILE="$TODO_DIR/done.txt"
export REPORT_FILE="$TODO_DIR/report.txt"

# You can customize your actions directory location
export TODO_ACTIONS_DIR="$HOME/todo/.todo.actions.d"
# == EDIT FILE LOCATIONS ABOVE ===

Here's the listing (ls -al) of the "/Users/miked/Documents/todo" directory:

drwxr-xr-x <at>  13 miked  staff    442 May  7 14:09 .
drwx------+ 55 miked  staff   1870 May  7 12:46 ..
-rw-r--r-- <at>   1 miked  staff   6148 May  7 07:22 .DS_Store
drwxr-xr-x   3 miked  staff    102 May  7 12:49 .todo.actions.d
-rw-r--r--   1 miked  staff    252 May  7 13:58 done.txt
-rw-r--r-- <at>   1 miked  staff     24 May  7 14:07 report.txt
-rw-r--r-- <at>   1 miked  staff   2492 May  7 14:14 todo.cfg
-rwxr-xr-x <at>   1 miked  staff  40937 Apr  8  2012 todo.sh
-rw-r--r-- <at>   1 miked  staff   1295 May  7 14:08 todo.txt
-rw-r--r-- <at>   1 miked  staff   4981 May  7 13:16 todo_completion

I created the directory: .todo.actions.d per the instructions here:
https://github.com/ginatrapani/todo.txt-cli/wiki/Creating-and-Installing-Add-ons

I navigated to: /Users/miked/Documents/todo and ran:
mkdir -p .todo.actions.d

I copied the projectview file to the .todo.actions.d directory

I then ran: chmod +x .todo.actions.d/projectview

Can someone tell me where I have gone wrong? If I have not provided enough data, please let me know and I will append.

Thank you.
