Vendingen er den, folk bruger, og recurrence-pakken har kunnet den siden den blev
skrevet — den oversætter "hver anden" til "hver 2." netop for at slippe for at
skrive hvert eneste mønster i to udgaver.
Sætningen nåede bare aldrig frem til den. Mønsteret i hurtig tilføjelse tog et tal
efter "hver", men ikke et ord, så det, der blev givet videre, var "hver anden".
Det er ikke en regel. Så blev de to ord stående i titlen, "tirsdag" blev læst som
en forfaldsdato, og opgaven gentog sig ikke — uden at noget sagde det.
Sløjfen, der prøver sig frem, kunne ikke redde den: den fjerner ord fra enden, én
ad gangen, og kan ikke hente et ord, mønsteret aldrig tog med.
Fundet af en prøve, jeg skrev til noget andet, hvor jeg brugte vendingen som en
selvfølge og opdagede, at den ikke var det.

The box at the top puts things in the project with no section, which is right for
capturing. But a project has sections because the work belongs somewhere, and
dragging every new task down into the right one is a second gesture for something
you already knew when you typed it.
Two ways in, because they answer different moments. A field at the foot of each
section and each board column — standing there is enough, no syntax to know. And
`/section` in quick add, for the box at the top and for Today and Upcoming, where
you are not standing in a section at all.
The field goes through quick add rather than createTask, so a line written there
still parses its dates, priorities and labels.
The sigil needed care: '#' and '@' never turn up in a Danish task line by accident
and '/' turns up constantly. It has to follow whitespace and be followed
immediately by the name, which "km/t", "3/4" and "20 kr / stk" all fail. The bare
form is greedy, because "Kunder/Ordrer" is a real section name and the sigil is
inside it.
A section id from the client is checked against the project the task actually
landed in. A `#project` in the same line can move the task elsewhere, and the id
would otherwise follow it into a project that section does not belong to.

"vand planterne hver mandag" becomes FREQ=WEEKLY;BYDAY=MO. The stored
form is RFC 5545, not a private format, so the same field will drive the
CalDAV server and the ICS feed without a translation layer.
Ticking off a repeating task advances it instead of closing it, keeping
the same row — so its sub-tasks and comments stay attached. A weekly
review is one thing that recurs, not fifty-two things. The clock time
survives the move, and the completion is still written to the activity
log, because "what did I get done this week" has to include the chores
that repeat.
Recurrence is parsed before dates, and that ordering is load-bearing:
"hver mandag" contains a weekday, so a date parser reading it first
would claim Monday as a one-off and strand "hver" in the title. It is
also resolved before the time-only case, or "hver mandag kl 9" typed
after nine would land tomorrow morning instead of on Monday.

Parses date, time, priority, project and labels out of one typed line,
e.g. "betal moms i morgen kl 10 p1 #Firma @regnskab".
Both languages are read at once rather than behind a locale switch,
because people mix them mid-sentence. Locale settles only one genuine
ambiguity: a bare hour after English "at".
Each stage reads a copy of the line with earlier matches blanked out,
so no two readings can claim the same characters — without it "kl 10.12"
is a time and, to the date parser, also the 10th of December. Matches
are returned as byte spans so the input box can highlight what it
understood as you type.
