### Todo list
#### Description
The _todo list_ widget displays the _todo comments_ located in the source files.
![](img/todo_list.png)
When no source file is opened but a project is, the widget displays the comments of the whole project.
When a source file has the focus and if it is not part of the project then the widget only displays the items located in this file.
Otherwise if a file has the focus and if it's part of the project then the whole project *todos* are displayed.
It's possible to jump to a particular item in its file with a double click.
The items cannot be edited in the widget.

#### Format
The _todo comments_ must follow this format:
> TODO|FIXME|NOTE -cCategory -aAssignee -pPriority -sStatus : what
The fields (-a -c -p -s) are optional but the _what_ is mandatory.

// TODO: something.
// TODO-cfixes: something to fix.
// TODO-cfixes-aMrFreeze: something that MrFreezae has to fix.
// NOTE: a reminder.
```
are valid _todos_.
