A command line note-taking interface combining elements of Notational Velocity and nvALT

This package is in early development. Please file an issue if/when you find a bug.

Description

From Notational Velocity:

NOTATIONAL VELOCITY is an application that stores and retrieves notes. It is an attempt to loosen the mental blockages to recording information and to scrape away the tartar of convention that handicaps its retrieval. The solution is by nature nonconformist.

Installation

npm install -g terminal-velocity

Usage

Once installed, simply run termv in your console

Configuration

You can override the default settings by providing a .termv file in your home directory. The file must contain a valid JSON object.

{
	"editor": "vim",
	"notesDirectory": "./notes"
}

*notesDirectory is always relative to your home directory
