grus

grus is a command-line hierarchial task manager. Heirarchial task management allows very long tasks to be broken down into smaller and smaller subtasks and hence is also suitable for long-term planning. This allows one to break long-spanning tasks into more manageable short-spanning subtasks.

grus focuses on making planning as quick as possible, so that one spends more time working, and less time planning. It fills the screen with the most important tasks, so that the user doesn't get overwhelmed with a lot of tasks. This makes scrolling for tasks mostly unnecessary. It has vi-like key bindings, so most operations: adding, deleting, renaming, take the least amount of keystrokes to perform.

Warning grus is currently in very early stages of development. It is unfinished and unstable. Storage format might change between releases, so task storage generated by previous releases might be incompatible with the current release.
