How to view "complete list" of tasks, including repeating
turtlecove says:
How do I view a list of all of my tasks, including which ones are repeating. Currently if I look at 'all tasks' there is no indication of which ones are repeating tasks.
I'm trying to view a list of tasks with a column or indication such as (daily) (weekly) (every thursday) on each repeating task

What would be the best way for ME to write an addon/plugin/script that would read RTM's calendar info, and display a list of events:
first all one-time events in date order
then weekly repeat events under a heading WEEKLY:
then monthly repeat events under a heading MONTHLY:
etc for QUARTERLY, ANNUAL, PERIODIC (other)
I am willing to write the code, in whatever language/API is necessary. But I don't know what is available. Can I add a link to my custom code on MY RTM page for easy access?

Sorry to beat this to death (if I could edit posting I would just add this to the post above)...
What I am really looking for is a way to manage a fairly large set of repeating tasks. Currently there is no way to manage repeating tasks separately from all one-time tasks. I would have to scan my list of tasks and check each one individually to see which are repeating.

a) Repeating tasks have a subtle icon to the right of their name to indicate this. I know this as I begged for ages to have this added (http://www.rememberthemilk.com/forums/ideas/311/), which it was in November 2007 (http://blog.rememberthemilk.com/2007/11/remember-the-milk-reloaded/).
b) You can easily create a smartlist of your repeating tasks using isRepeating:true (More operators here: http://www.rememberthemilk.com/help/answers/search/advanced.rtm) if you tag daily things as daily, weekly as weekly, etc., it'd be easy to then make a smartlist that showed you quarterly repeating tasks, for example.

Thank you. That is helpful.
It still doesn't give me my repeating tasks at one glance, grouped by frequency. For now I will use the tags or the isRepeating:true operator.
RTM: please add the ability to add a custom LIST that just displays my own URL. I will parse the icalendar info myself.
