add note to todo about ultralist HOT 8 CLOSED

I will deal with this feature after the new release mentioned in the comment from #82 .

from ultralist.

Questions:

• Would this be useful?

According to the GTD principle, one (with his/her tool) should keep his/her mind as clean as possible, so this should be useful for some users.
I added #27 mainly because I want more detail on each todo, but sometimes the work item is just a unit, no need to expand, but need to explain.

• How to edit/delete individual notes?

I think an enumerated list structure would be better for these tasks than pure list? for example

t n 56
Notes for todo 56:
1 This is dependent on @bob's work on the other ticket.
2 https://3.basecamp.com/3650215/buckets/2602510/messages/504658001

Json format seems to support this. We can make the notes as string arrays such as:

... "notes":["This is ...", "https://..."]...

• Do we surface these notes as part of listing todos?

I am neutral on this.

I was thinking notes would be useful because sometimes I like to attach URLs to todos, which aren't really great looking in the list.

I'm new to this project, and it looks very interesting - great work everyone!

Adding notes is one of only two features I really miss. And your suggested workflow works for me. I very often add URLs to my todo items so this would be great.

Also the enumerated list would be a clean way of continuing to add information to an existing todo item.

nice!

If I may add my point of view:

Would this be useful?

Yess, definitively !

How to edit/delete individual notes?

Adding note:

~$ t n 56 "Add your note here" 
~$ t n 56 "Add multiple line 
notes here" 

Listing note for a given todo

~$ t n 56 
1 Add your note here
2 Add multiple line
notes here

archiving a note

t n 56 ac 1

I'm note sure there is a use case for editing an existing note.

Do we surface these notes as part of listing todos?

No by default. It should be an option to the listing function something like t l full

I've seen, too late, that the feature is already being developed and that a PR exists. You may ignore my above comment :)

Thanks for your opinion anyway! cheers :)
