Todo Markup for Google Apps Script?

[unforswearing]

This idea was originally in the General Todo Repository

Port the markup parser to Google Apps Script for use in Gmail / Google Docs. Gmail will be easier to set up and manage since the script can use plain HTML.

Gmail

• Create email with todo markup
• Tag email with tdx label or similar
• Send email to self, copying anyone else who should see the generated markup
• Script parses markup and generates an HTML file, served via GAS
• Script emails link to the HTML file to original sender and anyone copied on markup email

Google Docs

• Create doc with todo markup
• Run script from Tools menu
• Script generates a new doc with equivalent HTML markup as native Google Doc elements
• Email generated doc url to anyone who has access to the original markup doc
