+"""
+Displays the GitLab todo count:
+
+    * https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/todos.html
+    * https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/api/todos.html
+
+Uses `xdg-open` or `x-www-browser` to open web-pages.
+
+Requires the following library:
+    * requests
+
+Errors:
+    if the GitLab todo query failed, the shown value is `n/a`
+
+Parameters:
+    * gitlab.token: GitLab personal access token, the token needs to have the "read_api" scope.
+    * gitlab.host: Host of the GitLab instance, default is "gitlab.com".
+    * gitlab.actions: Comma separated actions to be parsed (e.g.: gitlab.actions=assigned,approval_required)
