Dose is a customisable personal assistant for managing your deadlines, events and todos. Made for users who are comfortable with Command-Line based interactions, Dose helps you get your tasks out of your head as quickly as possible without getting in the way. Stop fiddling with bells and whistles of other todo-list apps -- Dose's pretty GUI is just a bonus!
Experiencing a caffeinated rush and needing a dose of calm? Stuck in a rut and wishing for a dose of motivation? Dose has your back. Put your tasks in Dose and never forget about them ever again!
To add a todo, event or deadline to Dose, simply type the type of the task, followed by its description and deadline (if any). Dose will update your list of tasks accordingly.
Keep track of the tasks you've added. See each task's description, deadline, priority and tags (if any) in a compact list view.
Dose is capable of saving your list of tasks to a small, portable text file. Upon the next startup of Dose, your tasks will be instantly re-imported -- no sweat!
Done with a task? Mistakenly added a task you no longer need? Dose will take care of it.
Need some organisation for your tasks? Dose is here to help. (Sorting tasks by tag and priority is coming soon!)
Looking for a specific task? Simply search for it.
Too many deadlines at your back? Have yourself a dose of calm by postponing non-urgent tasks.
