<p>Are the any task tracking systems with command-line interface? </p>

<p>Here is a list of features I'm interested in:</p>

<ul>
<li>Simple task template<br>
Something like plain-text file with property:type pairs, for example:</li>
</ul>

<blockquote>
<pre><code>description:string  
some-property:integer required
</code></pre>
</blockquote>

<ul>
<li>command line interface<br>
for example:   </li>
</ul>

<blockquote>
<pre><code>// Creates task
&lt;task tracker&gt;.exe -create {description: "Foo", some-property: 1}   
// Search for tasks with description field starting from F
&lt;task tracker&gt;.exe -find { description: "F*" } 
</code></pre>
</blockquote>

<ul>
<li><p>XCopy deployment<br>
It should not require to install heavy DBMS</p></li>
<li><p>Multiple users support<br>
So it's not just a to-do list for a single person</p></li>
</ul>
