# Contexts
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Set three contexts by their tags:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> task context define work +sa or +hr
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> task context define study +ed or +void or +rat
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> task context define home -sa -hr -ed -void -rat
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Change to the first context.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> task context work
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then stop.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> task context none
|
|
|
|
|

Make a UDA 'size'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> task config uda.size.type string
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> task config uda.size.label Size
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> task config uda.size.values large,medium,small
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

# Tricks
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This command shows tasks I'm most interested in:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> task next +ACTIVE or +OVERDUE or due:today or scheduled:today or pri:H
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The command is long, so `alias` is your friend.
