etm Description

An open source and Python based acronym for event and task manager etm provides a format for using simple text files to store event and task information, a command line interface for viewing tasks and events in a variety of convenient ways and a curses-based GUI for creating and modifying events and tasks as well as viewing them. Alarms are also supported for repetition and events for both tasks and events in a flexible and powerful manner.Compared to the combination of wxRemind and yeaGTD, etm provides the following advantages:· an agenda view that shows events and tasks together for the next few days rather than one day at a time in separate task and event windows.· a quick and simple way to enter events and tasks on a single line.· support for remind but also an independent way of entering events with contexts, notes and optional alarms.· an interactive GUI that uses curses and thus requires nothing more than a terminal window. Here are some key features of "etm": · Quickly enter an event or task on a single line using a simple format. · Add notes that display with the relevant event or task. · Specify a list of minutes prior to an event at which to trigger early warning alerts. · Specify a number of days prior to the due date to be reminded to begin a task. · Display tasks in customizable colors which depend upon their due dates. · Keep complete records of the dates when tasks were completed. · Easily specify tasks that repeat in complex ways, e.g., the first Tuesday after a Monday in November every four years (Presidential election day). See Repetition examples. · Quickly enter dates and times using fuzzy parsing. · View events and tasks sorted by date, project or context. · Limit the display to events or tasks whose titles, notes, projects and/or contexts match (regex) search string(s). · Set 'etmlocale' in ~/.etmrc to see dates and calendars in your native language. Other settings determine the first day of the week and the words and phrases used in displays and alerts. · View, edit and create remind reminders. Requirements: · Python What's New in This Release: · Added self.Layout to init.
