Reschedule a task from the edit view #148

I don't know if this is currently possible but it would be nice to be able to change the due date of a task from the editing tasks view like

wl-task 123123123 change due

Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestion, some similar ideas are described in #94. The main challenge here is making the task parser operate with a starting value as defined by the task. With that in place, anything you type on the task editing screen would replace the corresponding values in the task. This would also require sharing some of the task editing screens between the task entry and editing handlers like the one you showed above.

Oh I see, it's a bit harder than what I've imagined. I hope it lands at some point (or to have enough time to tackle it myself!)

If the feature is not on your desired features feel free to close the issue, thanks for the detailed answer!

I do, too! I have spent most of my open source development time lately on the next major version of parsedatetime, which is the library used by this workflow for interpreting dates. So, it won't be soon but it is planned.
