The sequence seems to relate to the version of iCal which created the todo
item. But *WHAT* the relationship is is not clear.

When I run this code:
tell application "iCal"
{get sequence of first todo of calendar 2, get sequence of last todo of
calendar 2}
end tell

I get:
{2, 3}

I then added a fresh todo, and it got a sequence of 1:
tell application "iCal"
{get properties of last todo of calendar 2, sequence of todo -2 of
calendar 2}
end tell

Reformatting slightly:
{
{priority:0,
due date:missing value,
uid:"A92B06B6-4EAE-11D8-9587-003065F8D83E",
sequence:1,
url:missing value,
summary:"Summary for AppleScript-users list",
class:todo,
stamp date:date "Saturday, January 24, 2004 12:48:44",
completion date:missing value
},
3
}

So for some reason iCal "1.5.2" is making sequence 1 todos, although earlier
versions made sequence 2 and 3. Or something like that.


It's probably of little interest unless older todo forms don't have all the
properties that newer ones do, but that doesn't seem to be the case.


The text of the todo is the summary property:
tell application "iCal"
get summary of last todo of calendar 2
end tell

--> "Summary for AppleScript-users list"
