TaskPaper integration

I would love to see Pomodoro integrate with Task Paper in addition to Things and Omnifocus.

The TaskPaper programmer, Jesse Grosjean, is very collaborative and he immediately sent me a piece of applescript.

Can you see if the following piece of code fits well in Pomodoro/Taskpaper workflow? You can try it in the Applescript Pomodoro editor (but I have to integrate it, you won't be able to put the tasks in the combo from there)

tell application "TaskPaper" search front document with query "@today and not @done -a" end tell

I am not sure how to help with this. The supplied query works nicely in TaskPaper but somehow the AppleScript brings back garbage like the following:

{entry id 50 of document "cg" of application "TaskPaper", entry id 52 of document "cg" of application "TaskPaper", entry id 53 of document "cg" of application "TaskPaper", entry id 58 of document "cg" of application "TaskPaper"}

... where cg is the name of the file where TaskPaper stores its data. I also don't actually know how Things and Omnifocus integration in Pomodoro work as I don't have those applications. I guess what would make sense for TaskPaper would be one or both of the following:

  1. ability to send the currently selected task in TaskPaper as a task description into the new pomodoro dialogue using a keyboard shortcut.

  2. have all tasks marked with "@today and not @done -a" from TaskPaper appear pre-loaded in the new pomodoro dialogue whenever it is invoked.
