10.3.8. Shopper
Shopper is a plugin which allows you to maintain reusable shopping lists. To create a
list, use a text editor to write down a list of items (one per line; note that the line length
should not exceed 40 characters) and save the file as
<name>.shopper
. If you want to
separate the items you can do so by creating categories, which are prepended with ‘#’.
To open a
.shopper
file just “play” it from the file browser.
Example
#groceries
bananas
cucumber
4 apples
6 apples
#dairy
milk
cheese
Note that it isn’t possible to choose exact quantities, but you can create a number of
entries with different quantities in the name of the item, such as for the apples in the
above example.
There are two modes,
edit mode
and
view mode
. The edit mode shows all the items,
and it allows you to select which of the items you want to buy. When you have finished
selecting the items, use the menu to go to the view mode, and you will see only the items
you wish to buy. If you ‘select’ an item in view mode then that item will be removed
from the list.
When you exit Shopper the last view is saved, including which items you have se-
lected, so if you re-open the shopping list it will be as you left it. There are additional
menu options for clearing the list, selecting all items, showing and hiding the categories,
toggling the categories, and displaying the playback menu.
