Sorry this mail got sent a bit prematurely :)

* TODO Prepare for trip [0%] [0/3]

=A0- [ ] pack clothes
=A0- [ ] print boarding tickets
=A0- [ ] turn on alarm

* TODO Prepare for trip [33%] [1/3]

=A0- [X] pack clothes
=A0- [ ] print boarding tickets
=A0- [ ] turn on alarm

* TODO Prepare for trip [100%] [3/3]

=A0- [X] pack clothes
=A0- [X] print boarding tickets
=A0- [X] turn on alarm

You can use either the [%] or [/] (or both) cookies in a headline
As long as the checkboxes are lists it updates properly.

HTH,
Bernt
