Welcome to the ctodo wiki.

Most information is available in the README.

Compiling on Windows

Mingw and msys was used. NCURSES is the only dependency. See http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/mingw-w64/wiki/NCurses for notes on how to compile NCURSES on Windows.

The Windows-version has been tested on Windows 7, Windows XP and Windows 2000. It doesn't work in Windows 2000.

Future changes

  • Default file: tasks.todo instead of todo.txt. Also maybe instead of creating this file, try to find a .todo-file in the current directory and open that. Example: If I'm sharing a task list, e.g. tasks.todo using Dropbox, I can double click on it in Windows or in Linux simply run ctodo in the directory from a terminal in order to access it.
  • User interface: The ncurses-interface is nice and fast and works fine when run from a terminal on Linux, however it looks a little bit too oldschool on Windows (and the window can't be resized it seems). Maybe experiment with different GUI toolkits. Few dependencies would be nice though. And the result should be just as simple and fast as the current interface (and it should be optional, kind of like Vim/gVim for Windows).
