Hi,

This week i spent most time creating and developing the search interface.
I dealt specially with the advanced search widget, trying to provide an easy
and fast way do more complex (and syntax full) searches.
I found that doing this is a lot of verifications and a lot of variables
that can go wrong, from lost focus on widgets to different methods of
achieving the same thing, but i guess i learned a lot of pygtk :)

i also had to change a detail of my implementation, which was using the main
task tree and filtering it for search results to a different view of that
tree, so i can keep search results, avoid reseting filters all the time and,
probably in next week, create a different view in the interface for that.

Next week is all about finishing the interface and stating to combine more
complex searches.

For more details on the interface go
