All,

I have been looking into Getting things Gnome and this is room that I 
see for making the programs collabrate:

For zim have a plugin that adds an "Turn  into task" action. This action 
would take a piece of text selected in the editor and pass it to gtg in 
order to create a new task. If the text contains a bullet list bullets 
couldbe turned into sub-tasks automatically. This would allow to use zim 
as an "inbox" or brainstorm pad, and define tasks in gtg easily when 
organizing.

Also for zim have a way to link to gtg tasks by a url or similar.

Needed in gtg for this:
* commandline option to open a task by title / id / ..
* commandline option to read new task from stdin or something like that

Similarly in gtg one could have a url style to link to notes in zim - 
this is easy as zim allready excepts notebook + page as commandline 
argument.

After turning on experimental note support in gtg I see the "turn into 
note" toggle for tasks. Would be nice to have an option making this call 
zim and paste the contents into a new page in the notebook.

Needed in zim:
* commandline argument to read new note from stdin or something similar

Just my brainstorm dump, please let me know if you have other ideas.

Cheers!

Jaap
