I would like a good todo list. I found one but it is broken. I would like ether to know how to fix it or a new one.

When i try to run the "tasks" program that it installs, it gives me "bios:367: [string"tasks"]:1: unexpected symbol
When I try to run the "todo" program that it installs, it gives me "todo"34" attempts to indext ? (a nil value)

Moved to General.
Sorry. New to the website. I didn't know where this would go

The tasks file is not to be ran, it holds the tasks.
The todo file contains this line which is what is being error'd on - local data = file.readAll()

How wold you then add tasks? I tried different ways to add tasks and i have no idea how to fix the local data= file.readAll().

Here are a few more recent todo-list programs:

http://www.computerc...-pocked-edition

The are more likely to work, though they might be limited to the Advanced Pocket Computer

Oh my god those are cool! would there be any way to sync multiple pocket computers together? Would there be a way to display this info that is synced with the computers as well?

I don't think either of those do that, you'd need to add it.
Its totally possible to do, but it would be a very difficult first project ;)/>

You could use the Rednet API to broadcast a message whenever an item is added or changed.
Other computers would need to listen for a message, and update their own lists accordingly.

Note that by default, CC limits the range of wireless modems' range to around 100 blocks, you can change that in your CC config (If your world is singleplayer)
