How the tasks are organized in the different columns ?

I used the todo.txt priority prefixes to define in which column each task should appear. I am not sure it fully respect the todo.txt format but it does not seems a total nonsense either.

• (A) A task in progress and therefore a task with the highest priority. Goes to the To Do column.
• (B) The very next step to do when all the tasks in progress are done. It is a To Do task tagged as important.
• (C) This task is done but need to be validate before considering it as finished. It goes to the Validation column.
• x This task is finished and goes to the Done column.
• A task with no priority prefix goes to the To Do column, waiting to be treated.

Current support of the todo.txt format

• priority prefixes
• project tags +project
• context tags @context
• creation date
• completion date
• special key/value tags
