use uuid.short for tasknote filenames #98

Open linuxcaffe opened 8 years ago

linuxcaffe commented 8 years ago

Having tasknotes with full uuids as filenames is (imho) cumbersome and unnecessary. This RFE is to have taskopen use uuid.short for tasknotes, still having a low risk of name-collision, but with less crazy-wide files listings.

Can you give an example for how to get the uuid.short of a task?

linuxcaffe commented 8 years ago

In a report, one can use uuid.short, but otherwise simply truncate everything after (and including) the first "-".

I suppose this can be easily implemented in the editnote script.
