Keyboard Shortcuts
There are a number of keyboard shortcuts that make GQueues the efficient work horse that you need.
The current item in GQueues is marked by a black dot to the left of the item.
Current Item
Typing the following keys will operate on the current item.
- e - edit item description
- n - notes (add / edit)
- t - tag (add)
- c - complete item
- s - subtask (add)
- x - expand / collapse subtasks
- d - date (add / edit)
- a - assign task
- shift-d - delete
- i - insert new item (at bottom of queue or subtasks)
- 1-9 - move item to corresponding position
- 0 - (zero) move item to the end
Editing
When editing the description of the current item:
- tab - edit the next item's description
- shift-tab - edit the previous item's description
Also, hitting tab when editing the last item in the queue will create a new item.
When typing an item description or note, hit the enter key to "save" the text you just typed. This will also allow you to use the current item keystrokes again.
To start a new line within the description or note, type shift-enter.
