I can see where you're coming from, but I prefer the current behaviour. I tend to only use the first 3 or 4 priority letters. Alt-down-down-down sets the priority to C, which is how I want it to work. On 13 Apr 2014 19:39, "lepre84" notifications@github.com wrote:

Let's assume the possible priorities would be just (A), (B) & (C), wouldn't you like to use alt+down and get directly to (C)? :) Maybe a compromise would be to make the priority a cycle. So Alt+UP from (A) gets to (Z) and viceversa.

Here's an idea to address this issue: Add a keyboard shortcut to set an arbitrary priority to a selected task, using a modal popup window. This feature would work similarly to the postpone feature.
I could code it, if you want.
While that would be a good a idea worth adding anyway I was thinking that for my use case is probably better to use WAIT instead of a priority. So maybe an idea would be to add a W shortcut for WAIT (which is unused at the moment). So W could be like:
Then by setting filter 1 to "-WAIT" I would be able to hide all those tasks quickly. :)
Obviously I could edit the task manually but it looks like a small enough feature to add.

For the most part I'm trying to keep to the features covered by the official spec, and AFAIK there's no 'wait' concept. Have I missed something?

- U the task
- append " WAIT " at the end
- put the cursor after that for the user to insert the wait condition or use a input window like Postpone but I feel the other ways is more consistent with the usual editing of tasks.

You're right. I saw it used at the bottom of this page https://github.com/ginatrapani/todo.txt-cli/wiki/The-Todo.txt-Format but i didn't remember it was just a tip for user personalization. I beg you pardon as I'm still getting to know todo.txt. I guess you can close this thread as I'll be using a LATER personal keyword and filter by that :)

Title says it all. The use case is when the user wants to set quickly the lowest priority possible.
