Hi,

my suggestion is to add a commandline option for copy a task. (e.g. -copyfrom)

What I want to achieve:
Use a previously created and filled out (here kind of a form in the comments)  task as a template for a new task.


Example:
Creating a new task from task id 300 as template, task would be created as child of task 500, after that additionally alter some fields:

ToDoList.exe -pid 500 -copyfrom 300 -p 8 -tg ProjectX -nt "My new Title"

Thanks a lot :-)

Br
Nico

Just realized, that my example will not work, as "-nt" creates a new task instead of just altering the title.
So an additional commandline option for changing a tasks title would also be useful...
