How to format/edit tasks?

[gennaro-tedesco]

Where can I find documentation on the correct formatting for the task list? I cannot seem to find instructions beyond inserting/deleting tasks.

What I would like to do is the following:

• insert bullet points
• insert new lines
• use vim keys/shortcuts in the task view

are the above possible at all?

In order to edit a task, use i or a. I don't get what you mean by bullet points, but to mark completed tasks, use D (and undo with U).

I would like to itemise the entries in the task list like the following:

- first task
- second task
- ...

but carriage return exits the task mode; however, I have realised that o does produce a new line that I can use for indentation.

Furthermore: is visual mode not allowed in task/even mode?

What do you want visual mode for?

What do you want visual mode for?

Mainly to be able to select blocks of text at once and manipulate them more easily. However, I was only wondering if I had missed the documentation somewhere: I am not arguing that such modes must be present, the plug-in is fine as it is :).

I admit that the current editing way is not flexible but currently such modes are not implemented.
