Allow sidebar to restrict what files it reads from #5

I am using the local history extension to keep backups of my files in a .history directory within the work place.. every time a backup is created, this extension reads the backup file and shows all the TODOs from it as well, quickly filling up the sidebar!

Irrespective of that, there are plenty of times when I keep TODO lists in different files for tasks that I have or have had.. and would only like to focus on the TODO list(s) for the current tasks, so I would greatly appreciate the ability to filter what files your extension looks at for TODO lists.

Love the plugin.

Rob :)

Thanks for the feature request, I'll take a look at it as soon as time allows. 🙂

Hi again! I will take a look at this in earnest, soon, but meanwhile, you might be able to use the search.exclude setting. In any case, I am thinking of adding a setting for excludes which will be specific for this extension - implement your idea.
