Simple ToDo1.7.6

Simple ToDo is a portable tool that enables you to keep track of important upcoming events, such as tasks, meetings, appointments, birthday parties, vacations, and anything else. It features some advanced options.

Create multiple tasks and pages

The interface is user-friendly, represented by a large window with a neatly structured layout, where you can create as many tasks as you want by just double-clicking an entry and entering text.Tasks are added to one of the three available pages, which can be easily cycled, renamed or removed from the drop-down list, in order to make room for new ones with custom tab names.

Manage rows, columns, priority and status values

It's possible to delete existing rows and insert new ones, clear row contents, change text color and capitalization, apply bold or italic effect, indent or move selected rows to another list, as well as reset the window size to default.Moreover, you can define priority and status values (e.g. none, in progress, text, do next, done), save or print information, undo and redo actions, as well as remove all tasks marked as completed. Keyboard shortcuts are supported but they cannot be remapped.

Configure various program settings

As far as general preferences are concerned, you can switch to another GUI theme, exclude the priority column from the list, use single instead of double clicks for cell entries, modify the date format and separator, and configure text settings (e.g. word wrapping, font style and size, default text color, match row height to text size).

Portability advantages

The entire program's packed in just one .exe file that can be saved to a preferred directory on the disk or copied to a removable storage unit, in order to seamlessly launch it on any computer with minimal effort. It doesn't add new entries to the system registry or have any software requirements.

Evaluation and conclusion

Simple ToDo auto-refreshes information from time to time, during which it temporarily hangs. Its options are not highly intuitive for inexperienced users, but they shouldn't experience significant issues. System resources usage was minimal in our tests.
