Hi all, I'm pleased to announce release 0.56 of Task Coach. New in this release:
Features added: * Tasks can have attachments. Attachments can be added, removed and opened. Opening of attachments is done by starting the default application for the attachment file type. Attachments can also be dragged from a file browser and dropped onto a task in one of the task viewers or on the task attachment pane in the task editor dialog. * Whether a task is marked completed when all its child tasks are completed is now a setting that can be changed application-wide via the preferences dialog. The application-wide setting can be overruled on a task-by-task basis via the task editor dialog. * Task Coach shows a 'tips' dialog at startup. Hopefully it is helpful for new users. Experienced users can turn it off. Features changed: * More visual feedback when dragging tasks in the tree view. * Task editor layout changed. Priority is now part of the task description. Budget and revenue have been merged into one pane. Implementation changed: * Default values for task and effort attributes are no longer saved in the Task Coach file, resulting in an estimated 33% reduction of file size. What is Task Coach? Task Coach is a simple task manager that allows for hierarchical tasks, i.e. tasks in tasks. Task Coach is open source (GPL) and is developed using Python and wxPython. You can download Task Coach from: http://taskcoach.niessink.com https://sourceforge.net/projects/taskcoach/ A binary installer is available for Windows XP, in addition to the source distribution. Note that Task Coach is alpha software, meaning that it is wise to back up your task file regularly, and especially when upgrading to a new release.
