ANN: Task lists are now a "frame editor" so you can view a single task list in multiple ways at once

[williamstein]

I have found that no matter what I end up switching back to task lists for tracking nontrivial things - they work very well for tracking tasks and focusing on specific things, especially if you use hashtags.

Task lists are now a "frame editor" as illustrated here, so you can split, and do searches, filter by tags, etc., in multiple panels at once:

A task list is any file with the extension ".tasks":

You can also run code in them by making code blocks with an info string (e.g., py, sage, r, or a Jupyter kernel name, etc.):

If you put a hashtag #foo (followed by a space) then it appears at the top and you can then filter by it.
