In this demostratation, A SIMILIE timeline command plugin is developed and allows you to use command prompt and add "events" onto SIMILIE timeline. (time is based on U.S eastern time)

How is command plugin developed? Please take a look at the documentation here.

(*Note, "clear", "cd" are the base plugin commands available to you at all times)

The SIMILIE Timeline Command takes in the following form:


task -add eventtype|task name|task description|date|time 

"task -add" is the command name followed by five required parameters(eventtype,task name,task description,date, time) seperated via pipe "|" character

1. eventtype supports the following pharses:
meeting
email
task
helpdesk
contacts
network
design
2. task name can be any string you want
3. task descritpion can be any string you want
4. date is in (mm/dd/yyyy) format
5. time is in (hh:mm:ss) 24 hour military format
for example, if I want to add an event "email", task name "shoot jackson an email", task description "ask jackson of the project status", on date: "7/17/2006", at time : "10:00:00"? I type
task -add email|shoot jackson an email|ask jackson of the project status|7/17/2006|10:00:00
