What's changed

Vim keys, notes from the command line, and dated titles.

• Vim keys. Turn them on in Options ▸ Vim keys: Normal and Insert modes, counts, motions, d c y with text objects, undo and redo. The footer shows the mode and any half-typed command. ESC with nothing pending still goes to the notes list.
• Add notes without opening noted. noted --add call the dentist makes a note; noted --append Groceries "- [ ] oat milk" adds to one, made if missing; --title names it; text can be piped in. The note's path is printed, so scripts, launchers and AI agents can use it. Usage errors now exit with 2.
• Date in new notes. Options ▸ Date in new notes starts every new note's title with today's date, written as your system writes it (10-27-2026, 27.10.2026, 2026-10-27). Or set your own in settings: title = journal/{iso}.
• Windows. Shortcuts read CTRL+X instead of ^X, and themes show in full color in Windows Terminal and other modern consoles, instead of 16 colors.
• Ghostty on a Mac. Ghostty keeps ⌘↑ ⌘↓ for itself by default; noted now says so, once, when you seem to be reaching for them.
• Fixes. Three crashes editing Markdown tables: ^G on a lone rule line, and Backspace in tables with ragged or leading-rule rows.
