[Make window 116x32 for movie recording, light text, dark background]
This is the script from which a 2.0-specific movie will be made. On the left
are the typed commands, and on the right is the voice track.
It is intended that the left and right be combined and the result will be a new
task-tutorial.5 man page.
---------------------------------------- Configuration ---------------------------------------------
task show There is a 'show' command, that is used to display the
active configuration. There are hundreds of settings that
can be changed, and every one has a sensible default.
man taskrc If you want a complete list of all the settings and their
meanings, read the man page.
task config answer 42 The 'config' command is used to modify the settings, and in
this case the configuration variable 'answer' is given the
value of 42.
task show answer The 'show' command indicates that the value was changed,
task config answer and also that the variable is unrecognized. The show
command performs a detailed check on your configuration, and
alerts you to several kinds of problem. The config command
can also remove a value.
task rc.report.list.sort=description+ list
A very powerful feature is the ability to override the
configuration variables temporarily. Here I am requesting
an ascending sort on the description field only.
