Workflowish

Simple TODO manager/plugin/whatever for Vim, inspired by Workflowy.com

Why?

It started with a tweet

Here's what was "attached":

# vi: fen foldmethod=indent :
* lol
  * lol
    * wat
    * wut
+---  2 lines: * wee ------------------------------------------------------
    * meh
  * ouch

Then I started hacking on a little plugin-ish thing and came up with workflowish

How?

By defining a simple syntax in Vim and using brilliant folding capabilities workflowish can simulate 99% of Workflowy's features.

Features?

• searching (duh, it's, like, in Vim, broseph)
• deleting (as above)
• folding as a substitute for great zoom feature
• notes (just add \ in the beginning of the line to start a comment)
• vimgrep for filtering lines
• todos:
  • a todo which is not completed is a line which starts with *
  • completed todo starts with a -
• convert from workflowy plain text export
  • in a .wofl file or after :set ft=workflowish, run :call workflowish#convert_from_workflowy() to convert the whole buffer

Thanks to the long running tradition, workflowish files have .wofl extension.

WTFPL, but please tell me if you're doing anything with it, k?
