Notes

Personal journal in terminal.

This is still work-in-progress. Please check back in a while!

This project is inspired by jrnl, although it aims at more interactive behavior.

Also, it's a way to improve my Rust skills.

Incoming features

• Journal entries or quick notes in terminal (obviously).
• Optional encryption.
• Some nice way of searching the entries.
• Interactive management console supporting history and tab-completions.

More random ideas

• Data probably kept in text file.
• More interfaces, perhaps NCurses or web.
• Notes stored in "books" that can be one of:
  • Journal - dated entries
  • Notepad - wiki-like structured notes
  • Scratchpad - just one big entry
  • ...more? (To-Dos, some-sort-of-brain-dump-thing, ideas, ...?)
• Basic navigation similar to Linux shell.
• Statistics and streaks to encourage daily updates.
• The first line is the title of the entry (for most cases at least).

Interface ideas

• Basic management commands for books and entries:
  • ls, cd, cat/view/show(?), add, edit, rm, grep/find(?)

Books listing:
