Hi there,

I'm a bit on the paranoid side, well, when my todo list and notes are concerned at least...

I hope toodledo.com never goes away or suffers server trouble, but if it did, I'd like to know that I have backups.

I saw the csv export for notes and todos as a great way to solve this problem, but it looks like everything is cookie-based auth, so I can't just whack the right url once a week or so with wget :-(

So, how is it recommended to automate a csv export of my notes and todos once a week-ish?

cheers,

Chris

there is many wais to download http://www.toodledo.com/csv.php

Easiest would be to schedule a task monthly and click/save the link in the note.

Upper right-hand corner is "print" button in both grid and multi-line formats. I use grid and my monthly manual printout is perfect.

We do not currently have an option for scheduled backups sent to you, but we are thinking about this for a future update.

No need for backups to be sent.
All I need is a url I can hit with basic auth rather than cookie auth to make it easier.
In the meantime, I'll likely knock something up in python using mechanize...

cheers,

Chris
