If you use org-mode to keep track of your TODO lists, then this might be useful.

Assuming you have tasks in an hierarchical manner, you should Put [/] and/or [%] in the header

Use TODO keywords in the child node, as you normally would.

When an entry is marked DONE, values are updated automatically.

In case you need to update the values manually, do C-c C-c

I needed this when I refiled the entries. They were not DONE, so automatic update did not work.

Here is how it looks :

* Plan Trip to Paris [1/3] [33%]
 * DONE Book Tickets
 * TODO Pack your Bags
 * TODO Set vacation auto-response
