task-1.4.2.tar.gz
Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Intel-only: task-1.4.2.pkg
Debian package: task_1.4.2-1_i386.deb (Thanks to Richard Querin)

"task undo" can now retract a "task done" command, provided no reports have been run.
Task now correctly sorts on entire strings, instead of just the first character (thanks to Andy Lester).
Task now uses dashes (-----) to underline column headings when color is disabled (thanks to Vincent Fleuranceau).
Task now allows mixed case attribute names (pri:, PRI:, Pri: ...) and commands (add, ADD, Add ...) (thanks to Vincent Fleuranceau).
Task now supports a default project and priority for new tasks, via the new "default.project" and "default.priority" configuration variables (thanks to Vincent Fleuranceau).
Task supports improved word-wrapping to the terminal width.
Task now supports "default.command" configuration variable (for example it could contain "list due:tomorrow") which is the command that is run whenever task is invoked with no arguments.
Task supports modifying the existing description of a task, with the following syntax: task <id> "new description ...".
Fixed bug so that relative dates in filters (task list due:eom, task list due:tomorrow, task list due:23rd ...) are now properly supported.
Fixed bug so that source now properly includes <string.h> in order to build clean using gcc 4.3 (thanks to H. İbrahim Güngör)
