Omnifocus vs Teuxdeux

Omnifocus allows users to setup the "defer date" which can be treated as "start date". Tasks will not be marked as available until that date, which should help to focus on the "available" task only.

The forecast summary shows a quick digest of the tasks you have for the day. You can select any day to quickly see what tasks you have planned that day. For extra functionality you can connect with the iPhone’s Calender app, which allows you to also see any other events you have planned that day.

The Perspective section allows you to see an overview of the tasks you have set. It also allows you to set contexts or see things you have flagged.

OmniFocus 2 allows you to set up contexts for tasks in certain areas. This makes sure you never miss a task when you're out running errands and happen to be near something you need to do.

On desktop, tasks are assigned to a single line. To see the full description, you can hover over that task. Editing can be done by double clicking, and re-ordering the events are as easy as dragging them around.

It also supports markdown - a common web formatting tool that allows italics by putting single asterisk () around words or phrases, and bold can be done by using two (*) before and after the phrase you want to be bold. It can also handle links by putting the text you want visible in square brackets, and the link in round brackets so this: [Slant Homepage](https://www.slant.co] would look like this: Slant Homepage

Instead of trying to be a both a calendar and to-do app, it focuses much more on the to-do aspect. There is a calendar view, however your tasks aren't organized by time - just by order. You can reorder the day's events, and if you don't get them done they will automatically roll over into the next day, so you can be sure that you aren't ever missing anything.
