  What’s the difference between check and del?

  Use del if you’d never like to look back at a completed task.
  Use check if you want the satisfaction of seeing the ✓ beside your completed task for a while.
  Also, you can uncheck it anytime, in case you missed out on something :(

Tip

Add tusker show at the end of your .bashrc, .zshrc or config.fish to get reminded about your pending tasks whenever you fire up a terminal.

Why tusker?

• No dependencies. Seriously.
• Simple. So that you can focus on what’s important, which is finishing your tasks.

Features and contributions

tusker was written a couple of nights before my semester examination because I kept forgetting the topics that I had skipped. So if you find a bug or you’d like to add a feature, feel free to raise an issue or send a pull request!!

Note

I’ve tried to make the script POSIX compatible. However, if you do face an issue regarding that, please raise an issue. Or send a PR (even better)!!
