@hazlin they were doing something like that yeah. setting them up so it just shows you one thing at a time, until you tell it to advance, and treating the todo list as a "playlist."

apparently phone apps existed to do this but they want subscriptions and are written like shit. idk.

i rigged something like this with taskwarrior once. it would put the highest ranked task on pibar and clicking on the text would mark it done, triggering a hook to go pull the next highest entry and write it to a file in /tmp so pibar would update.

i never ended up using that workspace after putting it together though. don't really recall what happened.
