Great App
Thanks computerfreaker,
This is a great application, with a very active and responsive developer. This is in IMHO, the best to-do manager there is - commercial or open source. I have used it for a long time, and rate it as a "10". Your portable version works well!

Thanks for the feedback! I
Thanks for the feedback!
I agree with you - this is the best, or one of the best, to-do managers out there. I haven't used it a lot, but I've used it enough to see some crazy power behind that easy-to-use interface.
Cheers!

This is such a minor upgrade that it's not worth releasing Development Test 3: I just fixed an incorrect tagline in help.html. No functionality has been changed or affected in any way, and only the tagline in help.html has been altered.

So, even though you have a
So, even though you have a INI file, it still makes registry keys?

It can, but not necessarily
ToDo List can save its settings either in the Registry or in an INI file (not both); my launcher handles both cases.
With TinyResMeter, I created a default settings file so it wouldn't try creating an INI somewhere else; with ToDo List, there are too many options that are set on startup to be able to do that. I also didn't want to say "You have to select 'save in an INI file' or you'll lose portability"; somebody will eventually forget, per Murphy's law, and then there's going to be trouble.
IMHO, this is the best way of doing things - handling both the Registry keys and the INI file.

Yeah, the amount of options
Yeah, the amount of options is staggering. I downloaded and tried it breifly, just to see what it looks like. I may use it more often, at least for computer basked tasks.
Usually, we just setup defaults. Like with PNotes. You have alot of options.
Anyway, yes. Perhaps handling INI and registry is the best method. Do you have it set so that if there is a .ini file, it skips the registry handling?

Re:
Yeah, I'm porting most of my projects from DevProject to ToDo List based on the sheer number of options. There's an awful lot of power in TDL!
No, it doesn't skip Registry handling if there's an INI. Hmm, I should probably change that or it could mess up a local installation.
Thanks for pointing that out!

Sure, go ahead. Just two
Sure, go ahead.
Just two things you might want to note: I'm planning on switching to PAL as soon as its new release is out, so all "homemade" code is off, and a .tdl file association is still created. You can turn off the association in the Options dialog, but it's there by default. Once again, upgrading to PAL will take care of that.

K. Do what you want then. I still prefer handcoded nsis launchers.
Thanks for the tips.

I prefer writing handcoded NSIS launchers, but PAL is really nice when I'm in a hurry - and I'm always in a hurry these days. Last time I handcoded a NSIS launcher, there were a couple of subtle issues, primarily because I was in a hurry. Sandboxie (for initial testing) + PAL (for portabilizing) + Sandboxie (for testing the portable) ftw.
