Q: What is the todo.txt file format?
<DIV id="faq1" class="A">
<p>
The todo.txt file is simply a plain text file that follows a specification
created by <a href="http://ginatrapani.org/">Gina Trapani</a> and used in applications published by the <a href="http://todotxt.com/">Todo.txt Community</a>. The todo.txt file is both human and machine readable by following a few simple rules. You can find more information including the specifications <a href="https://github.com/ginatrapani/todo.txt-cli/wiki/The-Todo.txt-Format">here</a>.

Q: How do I add filters?
<DIV id="faq1" class="A">
<p>
Filters are created automatically by special text identified in the tasks you create. The two kinds of text it looks for are projects and contexts.
<p>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Project:</span>&nbsp;
Denoted by prefixing some text with "+"<br/>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Context:</span>&nbsp;
Denoted by prefixing some text with "@"<br/>
</p>
So for example the task "Contact Tom by @email to discuss the new +program" results in "@email" and "+program" added to the filter list.

Q: What is the difference between "Local sandbox" and "Local shared" in the file location settings?
<DIV id="faq1" class="A">
<p>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Local sandbox:</span>&nbsp;
The todo.txt file is located within the application sandbox
storage space and is only accessible to this app. This is the
default location when you start the app for the first time and the best
option if you do not need or want your file accessible from any other
application or process.<BR/>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Local shared:</span>&nbsp;
The todo.txt file is located within the shared application storage space
in "Shared/misc/todo". This location is accessible from any other
application.
</p>
</DIV>

<DIV class="Q">
Q: Can I export my todo.txt list from the local sandbox?
<DIV id="faq1" class="A">
<p>
You can export the todo.txt and done.txt files from your local sandbox by
opening the "Settings" page in the pull down menu at the top of the screen
and pressing the "Export sandbox files". From there you will be prompted to
select an accessible location.

Q: What happened to Dropbox support?
<DIV id="faq1" class="A">
<p>
Dropbox support has been temporarily removed from this open source edition. I plan to
rework a large portion of the sync code and re-introduce it along with support for
other cloud providers soon.
