- Modified default report definitions to use shorter column labels, namely
'Proj' and 'Urg'. This results in less horizontal space use.
- Adjusted unit tests accordingly.
- Add the configuration variable 'print.empty.columns'.
- If this variable is set to 'no', columns with all empty values are not
printed. This variable defaults to 'yes' (thus nothing is changed
by default).
- Updated taskrc.5.in to mention the new variable.
- Added unit tests.
- Removed deprecated 'fg:' and 'bg:' attributes, which involves code,
documentation and tests.
- Cleaned out NEWS file.
- Cleaned out config import synonyms, which should have been deleted a while
ago.
- Removed unused localized strings, but left the 'deprecated' one behind,
because it will be needed.
- Fixed bug #1022, where dependencies were note released when a blocking task
was completed (thanks to Arkady Grudzinsky).
- The Task object now caches ::is_blocked and ::is_blocking Booleans that are
determined on pending.data load.
- Simplified and sped up color rule processing using cached values, reducing
the number of map lookups, and removed loop invariants when the rules are
not defined.
- Simplified urgency calculations given the cached values for blocked/blocking.
- On load, pending.data is scanned for accurate blocked/blocking status
determination.
- Obsoleted and removed complex single-task dependency calculations.
- Sped up 'nag' processing by using cached values..
- Modified the 'show' command to consider color.blocking to be valid.
- Added default config value for color.blocking, and included it in the
precedence list ahead of blocked, as it is more important.
- Updated taskrc.5 man page to include the new color.blocking rule, and its
place in the rule precedence.
- Precise in the documentation that the wildcards for color precedence must
terminate with a dot. If not, 'tag' is completed as 'tagged', which violates
the default precedence rule.
- Change default precedence rule to reflect this.
- Unit test.
- ChangeLog and AUTHORS file updated.
- Updated more documentation regarding 'scheduled' dates.
- Added color.scheduled to the rule.precedence.color setting.
- Added 'ready' report to the main man page.
- Supports 'scheduled' date for tasks, which represent the earliest opportunity
to work on a task.
- Added unit tests for urgency.
- Implemented color rule.
- Added scheduled to 'info' report.
- Updated assorted documentation.
- Removed comments in default rc because they are never seen.
- Added (broken) 'ready' report, which is like 'next' but only for ready tasks.
- Fixed problem where urgency was not properly calculated for waiting tasks.
- Tweaked urgency coefficients to make most of the values closer together, and
therefore more sensitive.
- Inverted 'waiting' coefficient.
- Boosted 'next', 'due' and 'blocking' coefficients.
- Modified unit tests accordingly.
- Lessened the impact of 'blocked', 'project', 'tags' and 'age'.
- Fixed bug #552, where 'rc.verbose=off' suppressed warnings (thanks to Peter
De Poorter).
- Fixed bug #863, which suppressed report labels with rc.verbose=off (thanks to
Michelle Crane).
- The verbosity token 'special' now controls whether the feedback is provided
when special tags are added to a task.
- Added new 'special' verbosity token documentation to man page.
- Added missing 'next' special tag to man page.
- Added new localized strings for describing special tags.
- Fixed bug #897, which omitted the UUID field from the 'completed'
report, which is essential if you need to modify a completed task
(thanks to Eli Lev).
- Added a coefficient for ageing which is the increase (or decrease)
of urgency per day. The calculated urgency offset due to ageing
can be limited by setting urgency.age.max.
- Modified the meaning of 'rc.bulk'. The old meaning was: the largest number
of tasks that could be modified without confirmation. New meaning is: the
number of tasks that trigger bulk confirmation. Default was 2 (meaning that
2 tasks affected were not in need of confirmation), is now 3 (meaning 3 tasks
now trigger confirmation.
Despite the dog's dinner I made of the preceding statement, the configuration
variable is now easier to understand.
- Added feature #682, which allows the configuration variable 'defaultheight'
to override the assumed height of 24 lines when 'detection' is not enabled
(thanks to Steve Rader).
- Addressed bug #804 by allowing rc.hyphenate to control whether hyphens are
inserted when long lines are broken. This may help prevent xterm from
mis-parsing URLs in task annotations, when wrapped (thanks to Yann Davin).
- Added unit tests.
