Yes. My Todolist is a textfile with one horizontal bar (=====). Above it are the things to do, below the thing that I did. When something gets urgent I move the item just above the bar. When I do something I just move the line under the bar.

I do that because sometimes I don't remember if I did something or not. Or because I need to add details about how I did it (or why I couldn't do it, sometimes). I have this additional rule that, when a task needs extra info, they are indented right after the item line.

Actually the whole thing is one section of a VimWiki file, but I use none of the features of the plugin for this. It does have single-keystroke checkboxes; I use that for checklists, which are sort of "repeatable todolists".



Same system here. It’s simple and effective.
