Task Filters

+ A task filter is a means of reducing a task report to a + subset that may consist of all tasks that have a specific + project, priority, tag, or part of the description. +

+ +

+ A task filter consists of additional command line options, + that are specified in the same way as when a task is added. +

+ +

+ All task reports can make use of filters. +

+ +

+ For example, the report: +

+ + 
% task list
 + +

+ Lists all tasks. +

+ + 
% task list the
 + +

+ Lists only tasks with "the" in the task description. +

+ + 
% task list project:Home priority:H
 + +

+ Lists only tasks with both the "Home" project and "H" priority. +

+ + 
% task list +shopping
 + +

+ Lists only tasks with the "shopping" tag.

Task Shadow Files

+ A shadow file is a text file containing a copy of a task + report. It is automatically maintained by task whenever + something changes in the task database. +

+

+ This means there is always a current version of the task + report kept in a text file. Products such as + Samurize, + MkConsole, + or + GeekTool + can display this file on the computer desktop, so that it + is readily visible. +

+

+ To use a shadow file, edit your .taskrc configuration file, + and add two entries as shown: +

+ 
shadow.file=/path/to/file
+shadow.command=list pri:H
+

+ In this example the shadow file contains a report equivalent + to running "task list pri:H". +

- +

+ You can use any task command that generates a report, and of + course, you can specify any file name, provided the directory + it resides in already exists.
