Task Coach 0.78.0 freeware

Task Coach is a simple open source todo manager to manage personal tasks and todo lists. It grew out of my frustration that well-known task managers, such as those provided with Outlook or Lotus Notes, do not provide facilities for composite tasks. Often, tasks and other things todo consist of several activities. Task Coach is designed to deal with composite tasks.

Features:

  • Creating, editing, and deleting tasks and subtasks.
  • Tasks have a subject, description, priority, start date, due date and a completion date.
  • Tasks can be viewed as a list or as a tree.
  • Tasks can be sorted by all task attributes, e.g. subject, budget, budget left, due date, etc.
  • Several filters to e.g. hide completed tasks or view only tasks that are due today.
  • Task status depends on its subtask and vice versa. E.g. if you mark the last uncompleted subtask as completed, the parent task is automatically marked as completed too.
  • Tasks can be assigned to user-defined categories.
  • Settings are persistent and saved automatically. The last opened file is loaded automatically when starting Task Coach.
  • Track time spent on tasks. Tasks can have a budget. Time spent can be viewed by individual effort period, by day, by week, and by month.
  • The Task Coach file format (.tsk) is XML.

New Features in version 0.78.0:

Bugs fixed:

  • Make file locking work on Windows computers that have a hostname with non-ASCII characters in it. (2904864)
  • Avoid deploying UxTheme.dll because it causes problems on 64-bits Windows systems. (2911280, 2897639)
  • Correctly refresh task square map and task time line viewers after stopping effort tracking, i.e. stop showing the clock icon on the previously tracked task.
  • When maximizing and restoring panes (viewers), don’t change the order. (2922952)
  • Slightly faster redrawing of task viewers after sorting or filtering.
  • In some circumstances, synchronization with an iPhone/iPod Touch device would crash the app. (2925618)

Features added:

  • Tasks, categories, notes and attachment can have their own font. Tasks, notes and attachments that don’t have their own font use the font of the categories they belong to. Effort records use the font of the task they belong to.
  • In addition to the background color, the foreground (text) color of tasks, categories, notes and attachments can now also be changed. Tasks, notes and attachments that don’t have their own foreground color use the foreground color of the categories they belong to. Effort records use the foreground color of the task they belong to.
  • Added Ctrl+E keyboard shortcut to “New effort…” menu item.
  • Reminder dialogs have an extra button to mark the task completed. (http://uservoice.com/a/5HVq3)
  • The snooze times offered by the reminder dialog can be configured via the preferences dialog.

Features added:

  • Task Coach now limits the number of backups made of a task file. The number of backups retained increases logarithmically with the age of the oldest backup of the task file. When Task Coach needs to remove a backup it tries to keep the remaining backups spread evenly across time. (http://uservoice.com/a/5FrtF)
  • Merged the four menu items for exporting tasks and effort to iCalendar and vCalendar formats into two menu items.
