It’s interesting to note that there are very few repeated answers or “me too” type posts, which suggests that what works best is highly idiosyncratic and depends on a lot of factors (what you need to organize, with whom, and in what ecosystem).
I just use a [ ] in a plaintext. When I complete something I add an x, e.g. [x]. I haven’t found any shortcomings of this system yet.
- sewer_bird 8y agoIndeed! I keep my to-do lists in vim and have added a few lines to my syntax file to recognize/color a couple extra checkmarks like - [?] question - [o] blocked by someone else - [~] in progress - [H] on hold - [Y] Is X true? (yes) - [N] Is Y true? (no)
- orev 8y agoThe vimwiki plugin more or less incorporates this idea and gives you some hot keys to change state.
- jjnoakes 8y agoI tend to need checklists while I'm away from my computer, and would prefer something quicker on a phone than opening a text editor.
- muzani 8y agoThere's Sublime plugin - PlainTasks, which does this, but adds keyboard shortcuts for adding checkboxes, checking boxes, timestamps, and archival.
