Initialising skytag

Before using skytag you need to use the init command to generate a user settings file. Running the following creates a yaml settings file in your home folder under ~/.config/skytag/skytag.yaml:

skytag init

The file is initially populated with skytag's default settings which can be adjusted to your preference.

If at any point the user settings file becomes corrupted or you just want to start afresh, simply trash the skytag.yaml file and rerun skytag init.

You are now ready to start using skytag.
