I like keeping a log of the actions I've completed, but I don't like them in the same file taking up space. Previously I have moved completed TODO items and checkboxes to another log file manually. Is there a good way of doing this automatically? Do you have any other suggestions for how to keep a log of done tasks while removing the cruft left over from the current list? Michael Hoffman
