This is a program that takes a vimoutline file (.otl) with checkboxes
and processes it into an LaTeX file that may be printed out to get a
written checklist. All you further need is Vimoutliner (to facilitate
editing the checklist) and pdflatex to generate the pdf.
Producing a printable checklist is three step process:
1. Create the template and the Makefile:
$ checklist-formatter --initialize [--filename=fname] [title of checklist]
This creates a Makefile and a template named checklist.otl.
2. Write the checklist
$ vim checklist.otl
I suppose that you have vimoutline installed to facilitate the
editing of the checklist file.
3. Process the checklist into a PDF file
$ make
This calls 'checklist-formatter' to generate a LaTeX file from your
outlined checklist. The LaTeX file is then processed by pdflatex.
For further explanation of the available options use the help function
by either calling
$ checklist-formatter --help
or
$ checklist-formatter --man
