New Task Management/To-Do App for Mac Os X

Hello,

I'm looking for users to test my new application. This is a pre-Beta release. It should work fine but it's missing some features. If you could test it and let me know any problems, features request, improvements, etc I would really appreciate it.

You can find the download here: http://www.orionbelt.com/EasyTask.dmg

It requires Tiger. (If anybody has an Intel Mac could you let me know if it runs on it. Thanks)

Here are some of the features that I'll be adding soon:

- iCal interoperability (sync with iCals To-Do Calendar)
- Printing
- Drag & Drop support
- Keyboard shortcuts
- Export / Import
- Better looking Toolbar icons
- Better looking Application Icon

The web site currently only shows the windows version but I'll be working on that over the weekend.

Thank you for your help!

Trouble with recurring tasks when I don't finish before midnight

Hello all,

I am using EasyTask 1.7.6. Right now I'm using it for tasks that I have to do daily or weekly.

The problem I run into is when I don't complete my tasks before midnight. When I complete them, the tasks skip a day.

Eg. It's 01/01 and I have four daily recurring tasks I don't complete. Midnight passes, and I complete the four daily recurring tasks. I want the new date to say 01/02; however, since it is now 01/02, the new dates say 01/03. I have to go back and change the dates on all the tasks I completed after midnight.

When midnight occurs, I think all the unfinished tasks in the "Today" calander should be moved to the "Yesterday" calander. And when I complete a recurring daily task, the date should be incremented by one day from the last due day - not one day from the present day.

Thank you. I have about 15 tasks I have to do everyday (mostly reminding me to take my medications), and EasyTask is a great program to help me with these tasks.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »
