Either way, it works for me. Loving this app - I'm with nathan on this, hard to topple quicksilver, but this is a pretty close second. Re the anti-drawer - if it is not a drawer, it must be a shelf!

The anti-drawer looks interesting. After reading about drawers years ago as one of the great new features of OS X, I was really disappointed with the way Apple actually implemented them. It's basically Peeves #4 and 5 of http://allthings.blogsome.com/2006/03/27/my-own-ten-peeves-about-the-mac/ Maybe the anti-drawer will be a good answer (not going to assume anything until actually tried out!).

One thought. Some people (like me) just want to see their todos on a single calendar in iCal, rather than having a calendar for each context. Could you set up a preference to establish all todos within one Actiontastic iCal calendar? I find the 10 some odd calendars that have been added to iCal distracting, but I would like to see my deliverables for each day on my calendar without the tie in to context. Love the new release.

I assign a new todo @inbox for the email in mail.app. Everything works, and the new To-Do is added, with the URL. When syncing actiontastic it also appears in the inbox, complete with URL. However, when I process my inbox, the action looses the URL, meaning that I have to first copy the URL, process that one action, go to the action and paste the URL, go back and process the next etc. Very tedious. Isn't the URL supposed to stick with the action when I process it? I have a bit of a problem getting the Mail-iCal-Actiontastic flow to work good.

In other words, I don't understand the feature. I suppose if I used iCal, it might help, but I've been looking for strong reasons to start using Apple's built-in apps and have yet to find them. If whatever you've done here is that compelling, I'd give it a shot, but perhaps you could explain it so it's a little easier for us n00b's to understand. (I'm a big fan of the apps that provide screencasts... well, not the apps themselves, but the fact that they walk you through features visually and talk you through what they're doing) Jon, I just discovered your app tonight, and I haven’t read GTD in a while, but this whole integration with iCal you introduced with this update doesn’t make any sense to me.
