Google Tasks Indicator, an Ubuntu appindicator that displays your 10 most recent Google tasks on the Ubuntu panel, has been
updated to version 0.0.2.2 today, and it now lets you see all the available tasks, by selecting "Show Notes" from its menu.
From the "Show Notes" dialog you can also edit any existing task, mark tasks as completed, change tasks order and clear completed tasks.
To install Google Tasks Indicator in Ubuntu 12.04 or 11.10, use the commands below:sudo add-apt-repository ppa:atareao/atareao
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install google-tasks-indicator
The first time your run Google Tasks Indicator, a new tab opens in your web browser, prompting you to grant Google Tasks Indicator access to your tasks. After this, Google Tasks Indicator should start and show up in the panel.
Note: I've tested the latest Google Tasks Indicator 0.0.2.2 in Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin only.
Report any bugs you may find @
Launchpad.

Google Tasks Indicator is a new appindicator that displays your 10 most recent Google tasks on the Ubuntu panel. For now, Google Tasks Indicator supports adding new tasks, marking tasks as completed (or unmark them) and clearing completed tasks. This is the first version, released for testing purposes, so there are still things not yet ready, like editing tasks, selecting the list, configuring the number of tasks displayed and so on, but these features should be available soon. Also, for now Google limits the Google Tasks Indicator API to 5000 hits per day, but hopefully this limit will be increased.
Google Tasks Indicator uses OAuth2 so your credentials are not stored locally. The first time your run Google Tasks Indicator, a new tab opens in your web browser, prompting you to grant Google Tasks Indicator access to your tasks. After this, Google Tasks Indicator should start and display your 10 most recent Google tasks.
From its preferences, you can set if the application should start automatically when you log in and the icon theme used.
If you want to use Google Tasks Indicator with a different Google account, you'll have to revoke the access for the currently logged in user via
Google account settings.
