Tudumo

(originally posted 11 June 2007)
I've been playing some with http://www.tudumo.com/" target="_blank">Tudumo recently, and I think it's got great potential as a to-do list manager. Very simple, elegant and intuitive to use. Well suited to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Getting_Things_Done" target="_blank">GTD.

To get a jump-start on populating some Action Items into Tudumo, I wrote a quick-n-dirty script using http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/" target="_blank">AutoIt that takes a text file containing one-line task descriptions and pastes each line into a new Action item inside Tudumo. The result is a "poor-man's import" function that allows me to take lists from other software and transfer at least the basic info into Tudumo. Grab the script http://diercks.net/jon/misc/paste-tudumo.au3" target="_blank">source code if you want, of if you don't use AutoIt you can just run the http://diercks.net/jon/misc/paste-tudumo.exe" target="_blank">compiled version of the script.


6/12 update: Richard (the author) responded:
You should be able to either:1) Drag and drop text into Tudumo(I think dropping on any item will do it), or2) Move up/down to a position and "paste" copied text.Both should create a bunch of actions, one action per line.
Thanks Richard, that does work. I'll still hang onto this script because I may extend it later to include processing for additional item attributes like date, tags, and notes.
