nnote: nora's notes
----

provides a script, nnote, to quickly make notes in a simple hierarchy
provides four quick aliases: dnote, mnote, ynote, gnote

installation
----
optionally, set $NOTESDIR.
if you don't do this, nnote will use ~/Notes

then, install the scripts
option 1: clone this repo to ~$NOTESDIR/bin
          then symlink dnote, mnote, ynote, gnote to your PATH like

            $ ln -s "$NOTESDIR/bin/dnote" "$HOME/.bin/dnote"

option 2: clone this repo (wherever you like) and either
          a) add that directory to your PATH, or
          b) copy or symlink these scripts into your PATH

usage
----

when you call nnote, you give it a note type (daily/monthly/yearly/global)
and, optionally, a note name, which can include spaces with or without quoting.

nnote will:
- create the appropriate note directory,
- make the note if it doesn't exist,
- cd into $NOTESDIR so your CtrlP.vim or whatever will work,
- and then open the note in $EDITOR

when the editor closes it'll cd back to where you were.

aliases are provided:
- dnote for daily notes
- mnote for monthly
- ynote for yearly
- gnote for global

you can enter different names but by default those are the note names too
the file hierarchy is very simple, for instance:
- $NOTESDIR
  - bin/
    - [scripts]
  - [global notes]
  - 2024/
    - [yearly notes]
    - 08/
      - [monthly notes]
      - 28/
        - [daily notes]
