Go For It! is a simple program that performs the function of a task scheduler in a much simpler and more intuitive way than usual.
Although there are already millions of programs that perform the task scheduler function, Go For It! offers a program with a simple, elegant and powerful design , and is also completely free and open source.
It's very simple to use. First, choose the task you want to run in the To-Do tab. Then, schedule the time you want the task to run in the Timer tab. Finally, click the Done tab, and the application will start. A message will appear 60 seconds before the application is scheduled to run , and it will also appear once the application is running.
But the real difference between Go For It! and the rest is how it saves tasks. Tasks are saved in a text file called Todo.txt using the Todo Indicator program . Thanks to this program, we can save these tasks to a text file and upload it to a cloud storage service like Dropbox, allowing us to edit them from all our devices.
In my opinion, making Go For It! compatible with Todo Indicator was a great move, as it's incredibly useful for many people. Imagine, for example, that you've scheduled your Ubuntu Server to delete a file at 10 PM, but for whatever reason, you change your mind at 9 PM and can no longer access your server physically. With Go For It!, you can simply use your mobile phone to edit the todo.txt file to cancel the task.
This program was developed by Manuel Kehl, who also uploaded the demonstration video above this article. The video shows an example of how the application works.
To install it on Ubuntu-based systems, we will access our console and run the following commands . There is also a Windows version that can be downloaded from the web.
