I use todo.txt in combination with Remind. When something is coming due in Remind (for me I just use 'due tomorrow' as the determiner) a Cron job adds that as an (A) todo in my todo.txt file. Then I have another script that pushes my todo list every day to my phone so I can see easily check if anything is due in the next two days.
