      The panel

      Scroll, or click the panel.

      This panel is live. Each step changes its state.

      This demo shows the macOS menu bar. On Windows, the icon is in the system tray and shows the count as a badge.

      Numbers

      Each number comes from the source code.

      The database schema, the Tecla tokens and the alert code give these values. Both apps use the same schema.

      SQLite

      All data is in one SQLite file.

      Read the file with sqlite3. The first command lists the tables.

      The rows of the second command come from the live panel of this page. Mark a priority done there and read the rows again.

      The commands use the macOS path. On Windows, the file is %LOCALAPPDATA%\DailyZGT\daily-zgt.sqlite.

      Global shortcut

      Add a priority from any app.

      Windows

      Today has 4 open priorities.

      Press Ctrl+Alt+Shift+P on Windows or ⌃⌥⌘P on macOS. A small window opens with one title field.

      Press Enter to add the priority to Today with the level Medium. Press Escape to close.
