Description

This layer provide the tw4e package, i.e., Task Warrior for Emacs. This package is currently embedded into the layer as a local package.

The package provide two major modes:

• the Task Headers mode (tw4e/headers-mode), that list the pending tasks;
• and the Task Edit mode (tw4e/edit-mode) that allow for editing .task files (auto-mode-alist is modified by tw4e/setup).

The Task Edit mode is designed to work in conjunction with the task edit command. Internally, trying to edit a task means calling task UUID edit with the editor being forced to emacsclient.

WARNING: This work is highly experimental, don’t expect it to work seamlessly.
