On personal projects I use comments like

    (defun foo (x y z)
      ;; FIXME: foo should not barf if x is nil

and then periodically grep all my sources for "FIXME".

This is so common that many of the syntax files for Vim even have TODO FIXME XXX NOTE and others included, so they're highlighted and easy to spot.

IMHO, poor thinking. (sorry)

how will you prioritise and track them - open up all the files?

 grep FIXME *.l | sed s/^;;// | sort -n

still poor thinking (sorry again).

- what about bugs that dont belong to one file; and those that are across modules?

- to edit or reprioritise, you must open up the files again. Imagine making a Project Manager or business guy learn vi, not to mention messing up your code!

I work defects into my status report. It is just another heading - and move them around the categories. (template: http://juwo-works.blogspot.com/2007/08/my-status-report-temp... ).

Going for full Notepad(tm) compatibility, eh?
