[request withdrawn] Small adaptation of script for "due report" of items with due dates?

@complexpoint
I use your script to create a due report for Marked 2 on a daily basis, it is extremely useful. Would it be possible to adapt the script, such that it not only lists items with @due() dates attached, but also items with @waitingfor() dates?

I presume this asks for “expanding” the filter command to include ‘//@due’ AND ‘//@waitingfor’, and then adapting the groupBy and/or orderBy commands to have the @waitingfor items included in the list (they may be ‘mixed’ up’ with the @due items).

The current script is included below.

Best wishes,
Paul

// DUE REPORT script for TaskPaper 3 ver 0.04 b

// Modified for date display
// (removed red color, despite May Day, restored hyphen before day)
// and insertion of comma after project 
// 2016-05-01

@Paul Thanks for sharing. I just edited your post to wrap the script in a github style code block.

@complexpoint

UPDATE: adaptation of script is no longer needed. I now indicate waiting items as follows in TP document:

“- WAITING blablablah @due(2017-01-12)”

This allows for a clear visibility of these items alongside of the regular @due() items.
