I agree with the previous postings requesting logical linking functionality within MLO. I've also used Ultra Recall and I find their logical linking implementation to be nearly perfect, as well as extremely simple.
This feature would not require any changes to the hierarchical structure, nor would it introduce any added complexity. You would simply be creating aliases or pointers to specific branches in the hierarchy, at other locations in the hierarchy. This would be analogous to a symbolic link within a Linux file system, which is also hierarchical. Implementing this functionality would make it much easier to create task hierarchies without having to stress over where to place each task, when it could logically be placed in more than one location within the hierarchy. I realize you can get much of this functionality using contexts. The problem is, the MLO user interface is designed primarily around the task hierarchy, not contexts. I tried using a flat task list and organizing everything by context and it didn't work out. The context editor allows you to include contexts within other contexts, but there's no way to build an inclusion hierarchy. It just allows you to enter a list if contexts that are included within another context. Additionally, when you add a new task, the context selector displays every context you've created in one long list, rather than allowing you to select contexts hierarchically. If you try to use contexts as your primary organizational strategy within MLO, you'll end up with a big mess that will ultimately be too cumbersome to use efficiently. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MyLifeOrganized" group.
