I don't know I never used XSL. If tudu is able to export in other formats will
be nice if is kind of modular, so the users can create their templates for their
own formats.

Any way if you came up with any idea, just tell me.

No, the commands are implemented, but there is few of them already (check the
man page).

You can see the file tudu/src/cmd.cc that handles the commands, and in
tudu/src/editor.cc there is the CmdEditor that handles the input of them (doing
autocomplexion and so).

That could be nice. There is no way right now for select tasks, but could be
useful to create it.

PS: I send it to the mailing list, I just realize I send it only to you.
