And I didn't mean to sound angry or irritated.  I only meant that I don't find this
issue worth much of our time -- you made a good point  (and you are our Leader)
so I'm happy to move on to other work.

So I'll put my time into sorting todos by priority.

I am working to implement the viewing of Todos and Journals feature into KonsoleKalendar.
So I went to look a how HtmlExport does it.  And I saw the priority code which started this discussion
and I wasn't very happy about putting such code into KonsoleKalendar.  But, if I put the code
into a todos() sorting method I'm happier.   Let's agree to keep priorities as they are (integers)
unless a compelling reason to change comes along.

Allen
