Shortcut Tasks

Shortcut tasks are similar to user tasks. But shortcut tasks are directly tied to a line of code, and they are added by putting your cursor on the line of code you want to associate with the task and then selecting Edit, Bookmarks, Add Task List Shortcut. (We covered the similar concept of bookmarks back in Chapter 6.)

In addition to the description, completion indicator, and priority indicator columns, shortcut tasks show the file and line number for the shortcut. Double-clicking the shortcut task opens the associated file and puts your cursor back on the associated line of code.
