   1. one file name or observation ID per line
   2. the config.yml file contains the entries 'use_local_files' set to False, and 'task_types' set appropriately.
   3. the config.yml file features entry says use_file_names: True, if the list is of file names, and use_file_names: False if the list is of observation IDs.
   4. The 'todo' file may provided in one of two ways:
      1. named 'todo.txt' in the working directory, as specified in config.yml, or
      2. as the fully-qualified name with the --todo parameter
2. provide the files to be processed in the working directory
