PlainTasks - opinionated todo-list plugin for Sublime Text 2 (github.com)

As long as we're being opinionated, I think it would be better to just call this what it is: a Taskpaper plugin for ST2.

By the way, same thing for vim: https://github.com/davidoc/taskpaper.vim

I'm using this plugin for a while, and I think it's really great. The only flaw was that it lacked documentation, which is not a problem anymore.
Yes, I can only recommend it.

I use it both on my laptop and my desktop and the list is synced by Dropbox. The best thing that I can say is that it just works and fits very well into my workflow but instead of a simple text-file I now have a nicely formatted list.

For people that want this outside of Sublime you can get TaskPaper, same thing (I guess this plugin was based on taskpaper). Available at the apstore. I use it daily as my todo manager.
If you like TaskPaper—which by the way it's awesome—you should check [FoldingText], by the same developer. It's currently in alpha, and expand on the idea of TaskPaper adding some interesting features, like the builtin timer.

Sounds interesting. Cool that it's build in HTML/CSS/JS, and apparently 1.0 was just submitted to the App Store today:

I just did and I like quite a bit. It is very interesting. How much interesting it will stay really depends on the price. I don't intend to ever spend $25 for TaskPaper, so unless it is a $4.99 purchase, I will pass.
Thank you, I really enjoy this.

I spent so much of my time in Sublime Text these days that not having to leave it (even to go to as great a program as Omnifocus) is really nice.

When I read "opinionated" these days, I automatically translate it in my head to something like "This software only does part of the job, but that's by design".
I am using Simplenote for my todo list using Markdown. nvPY on Ubuntu and Flick Note on Android. It is nice and simple setup.
This looks pretty useful. I don't have to leave Sublime to check for my coding tasks now. I would definitely recommend this.
Nice. I've been making my own tasks in sublime for awhile.
