Script to check a specific RTM Smart List if there are any Tasks in it

Hello there!


I was wondering if anyone already had a script that can check if there is _any_ task on a specific (predetermined) Smart list, the script could then simply return true or false (1 or 0) to whatever executes the script, and so we could build whatever we want on top of that logic. ^^

Reason is I want to automate some decision making in "which task should I be doing next"... (less time spent on deciding is more time spent on doing)

If you, dear reader, do not have such a script, would you be interested in seeing such a script realized?

I have been thinking of creating one using RTM CLI ( http://www.davidwaring.net/projects/rtm.html ) but if anyone already has such a script, then obviously I don't need to reinvent the wheel....

Sounds like an excellent idea!

No idea if there are scripts like that. I haven't heard of any and I have been following these forums for quite some time.

I've been using the PYRTM API kit for about a year or so and could probably create that pretty quickly. I'll try and report back.

Here's a link to the modified script. You will have to follow the instructions in PYRTM to get your API secret and token.
