“devtodo is a program aimed to help developers manager their to
do lists from the Ubuntu Terminal. It maintains a list of items
that are yet to be completed, allowing programmers to track
outstanding bugs or items by adding them to a to do list. You can
prioritize items according to importance (e.g., low, medium, high
etc), and display them in a hierarchy within the Terminal
window.With the use of some small shell scripts (scripts.* in the doc
directory of the source distribution), Devtodo can also display the
outstanding items in a directory as you make changes to it. For
example, if you use the cd command into the source directory for
todo itself, you can see a list of outstanding items (if any).
