The script adds a new action to todo.sh, the todo.txt command line client, which allows to open documents referenced in a todo item. If more than one document is available a small menu will be shown. This allows you to easily acces documents that are required to accomplish the task.
Todo.txt uses a simple text file to store your items. Each single line represents a task.
To install the script you have to copy it to your TODO_ACTIONS_DIR
which defaults to $HOME/.todo/actions.d.
Just type: todo.sh open ITEM_NUMBER
