A comment on the problem "Having Trouble Creating Multiple To-Dos with List Power Move" in I want Sandy:
Yes, except Sandy's website says:
Anything all of the items in your list have in common can be dropped into the first line before the plus sign.
For example, you can schedule all of those errands for the same day like this:
remind me tomorrow afternoon @errand +
* pick up the dry cleaning
* stop by the paint store and find a nice color for the bedroom @home
* pick up my macbook
Sandy reads this as "remind me tomorrow afternoon [to]" + "pick up the dry cleaning" + "@errand" (and the same for the rest of the items in the list).
In fact, you can pack all the details into the first line before the plus sign and leave only what's different to the list itself, for example:
remember dentist appointments @dentist +
* 11/27 4pm
* 11/29 2pm
Sandy reads this as "remember dentist appointments" + "11/27 4pm" + "@dentist" (and the same for the rest of the items in the list). – JT, on June 26, 2008 15:14

Having Trouble Creating Multiple To-Dos with List Power MoveI'm having trouble using the create list power move to create multiple todos. See text of emails below. When I send Sandy the list of todos I want created, she doesn't use the text in the first line for each to do item. She just includes the info in each bullet. What am I doing wrong?!?!

Thanks! Maybe you should suggest it to the staff as a idea, or maybe a bug... – Phillip, on June 25, 2008 21:25

Well, maybe it was not exactly a suggestion, more like a question :) Anyway, you can find it here: http://getsatisfaction.com/iwantsandy...

Unfortunately, update command does not work with "+ power move". This is the cause of the problem. To use update on multiple items you need to use it for each item separately:
update #2 @done
update #3 @done
update #7 @done
update #8 @done
Notice there's a blank line between each command to ensure Sandy will process update commands for each item correctly.
I did suggest introducing possibility of using "+ power move" with update command before. So far it has not been implemented yet.

Can't Update My Todo List by Replying to Daily DigestI keep getting an error message from Sandy saying "There was more than one detail in the message you replied to" whenever I tried to update my todo list by replying to her Daily Digest. I'm usually replying from my Blackberry, so I can't really go back and erase everything I don't need. Is there any way Sandy can just learn to ignore the original emails farther down the email chain? See text of original emails below.

Howdy!
There was more than one detail in the message you replied to, so I wasn't sure which one to update. Notice how I number each item I list? I do this so that you can refer to a specific item you want me to update, like this: update #3 12/2/07.
Affectionately yours via email,
Sandy
