~~~~~~~~~
[Version change details are at the end of this file]
Introduction
~~~~~~~~~~~~
TDL is a program designed to help you maintain a list of "to do" items.
These items can be deleted, saved, rescheduled, edited, have alarms,
notes or telephone numbers associated, and lots more. A fuller list of
features is given below.
Environment
~~~~~~~~~~~
TDL needs Windows 3.1.
Features
~~~~~~~~
TDL includes the following functionality:
o Postponing of items by a given number of days, or until
a specific date
o Closing of items, which are saved for later reports, etc
o Permanent deleting of items
o Editing of items
o Alarms attached to items
o Notes attached to items
o Maintenance of a telephone number database, with the ability
to associate a telephone number with an item
o Prioritisation of items
o Notification of overdue items
o The ability to handle multiple databases open simultaneously (a
"database" in this context is a list of related items. For
example, you may have a list of to do items for project X, another
for project Y, and a third list of personal to do items).
o The ability to assign meaningful (non-8.3) names to databases
o The ability to automatically load given databases on startup, and
to determine which one will be displayed by default
o Extensive customisation options
