Currently I use todoman to create and manipulate tasks. This tool uses the same vdir store format as khal and can store the tasks in the same folders as khal.

It would be great if khal showed these VTODO tasks in the calendar with a nice unicode glyph to identify such events.

One could write a tool to autogenerate VEVENTs from VTODOs, such that we don't need to add this to khal.

That would break other tools that use VTODOs to manage tasks (e.g. todoman).

The idea is that I can manage and add tasks using todoman and have those same tasks appear in khal agenda.

Khal + Khard + Todoman + Vdirsync is the ideal cli PIM setup.

Any Progress on this in the meantime?

evilham added a commit to evilham/khal that referenced this issue Mar 17, 2022
Quick PoC that converts VTODOs to VEVENTs before adding them to the
backend, this enables us to not treat tasks as something very special.

If this approach is interesting enough, it should be forbidden that
khal edits tasks as it is out of its scope.

This would fix pimutils#448

@hsanson @tmerse: if you still use khal and are interested in the VTODOs feature, PR #1118 has a preliminary patch that can use feedback and further contributions to tests / documentation + adding code to ensure khal never edits VTODOs.
