Allow deleting multiple todos at once

[jslvtr]

Been having this issue where I have many archived todos (say 10). Would be nice to be able to do one of these:

todo d 1,2,3,4
todo d 1..4

Otherwise it's a wee bit repetitive. Great work on this, finding it very useful!

[mikezter]

You can delete all archived todos with todo gc (garbage collection)

[jslvtr]

Ah, makes sense! Might be interesting to add this to the README and on todolist.site!

[gammons]

ah, that's my bad. I will add gc to the todolist.site documentation now.

[jslvtr]

Great stuff, thank you! Will be very useful for me.

I'm going to re-open because I like the idea for this. It could be a good feature.

Would be nice to add multiple edit support for the following:

• Deleting
• Prioritizing
• Completing
• Un-completing
• Archiving
• Un-Archiving
• Editing due date

What is the current status of this issue?
It seems to me that ranged deleting and prioritizing is OK.

[stuartskelton]

The only thing outstanding is 'Editing due date'

[NonerKao]

What would that functionality look like? I come up with two scenarios, but maybe there are more.

Changing multiple todos' due day into another day would be straightforward, and kind of useful.

But if we are talking about providing a more general function: re-assigning different due days to multiple todos correspondingly, then we have to either provide an iterative prompt, or implement the parsing of a list of due days.

[stuartskelton]

I think it should stay inline with the other multi-id and have something like

t e 1-10 due today

anything more complex I feel will be confusing.

[NonerKao]

Agreed! Although this is less generic, this is still a common and useful feature.
