A simple reminder tool to remind you of your overdue tasks in ToDoList throughout the day

Image 1

Introduction

This a simple reminder tool for .dan.g's ToDoList. No fancy UI. No special code tricks. The only point of interest code-wise is the use of libxml2.

Libxml Resources

The reason for using libxml2 is the I didn't want to be dependent on IE version and it's DLL hell. At http://www.xmlsoft.org you can find a SAX and DOM parser under libxml2, an XSLT processor under libxsl as well as links to XML specs. You can find the Windows binaries for libxml2 at http://www.zlatkovic.com/libxml.en.html as well as examples.

That's all folks. Enjoy!

1. You should have already downloaded and installed .dan.g's ToDoList. If not, install it now.
2. Download the demo project (not the source).
3. Unzip all the contents of the download into the ToDoList installation directory (probably something like c:program files/ToDoList)
4. Run ToDoList. In the options menu select preferences (the picture of the blue/green wheel, or Tools > Preferences in the top menu.)
5. In Preferences, Select "User Defined Tools" from the left menu, and click on "New Tool"
6. Click on the little folder image on at the end of the path field (top row, before the "Delete Tool" button) and browse to the TDLReminderTool.exe file in the ToDoList installation directory. (The default location should be this folder.)
7. Click on "OK"
8. You should now have an image of the tool in the top menu bar. Click this icon to run the reminder tool.
9. If this doesn't work, you could always pray. That has been known to do wonders when things look hopeless.
