[Bug 352686] Re: Syntax for entering tasks with subtasks in the Add box

 

In my view, a syntax like:
task1 >> task2 >> task3
would make
task1
  - task2
       -task3

so we should have a syntax like
task1 >> (task2,task3>>task4)
to have
task1
  -task2
  -task3
      -task4

I personally find this syntax not really useful. If we look at what RTM is doing, we'll find that it's keeping the syntax very unintrusive:

In my view, GTG should be fast and easy.

Bug description:
I propose a simple syntax for entering tasks with subtasks attached, into the Add box.

Typing this into the Add box:

Task1>>subtask1>>Subtask Two>>Sub-task 3

would create the following task:

Task1

with the following subtasks created and assigned:

subtask1
Subtask Two
Sub-task 3
