It handles all of the file +management without having to change directories. It can also perform search +operations without having to write a long command. + + +Prerequisites +------------- +* gcc +* make + + +Installation +------------ + +* Clone this repository +* cd noteless +* make + +There is currently no **make install** for noteless yet, but the binary will +run from anywhere. Just symlink it to **~/bin/noteless** (or just copy it +there), add ~/bin to your path, and you should be good to go. + +Another method is to create an alias. Noteless is a single binary, so it will +run from any location. + + +Commands +-------- + +* *cat*: Outputs the specified note's contents verbatim. +* *new*: Creates the specified note and opens for editing. +* *edit*: Opens the specified note for editing. +* *find*: Performs a case insensitive search of all notes, displaying only + the lines that match along with their line numbers and files from which + they came. +* *ls*: Lists all notes +* *help*: Displays the help text. +* *rm*: Deletes the specified note + |
