Version Requires

Jot is a CLI utility that lets you write notes with out having to worry about where they’re stored. By default, all notes are stored in a git repo at ~/.jot in markdown and automatically pushed to a git repo.

Install

$ sudo pip install jot-notes

Usage

$ # Edit today's note, ie: ~/.jot/YYYY-MM-DD.md
$ jot
$ # edit a note in a category with a specific name, ie: ~/.jot/foo/bar.md
$ jot -c foo -n bar
$ # disable git integration

  • EDITOR - what text editor to use, defaults to nano
