Does anyone use jrnl for journal?
Collect your thoughts and notes without leaving the command line. - jrnl-org/jrnl
Can't you just use Obsidian and edit the MD files directly in your terminal? I know Obsidian isn't open source, but as long as the files are MD and I can easily take them with me, I don't really care.
Yep been using it for a few years. It takes a little bit to get used to, but if you like to take notes in Vim already, this is a nice tool. Auto obfuscates that you use it in Bash history if you follow the directions.
This is sick
Yes, and it's lovely
Looks great! At the very least, I’ll start using it at work to assist in documentation (something is better than nothing!)
if i want to write up something in the terminal, nano is more than sufficient
It's not a text editor in it's own right, you can use it with nano. It's simply a tool to help create and format journal entries. I'd assume you can set a directory they're stored in, and then use the command from anywhere, but didn't dig into the documentation just yet. It can also handle encrypting those entries if you choose.
I dunno, maybe just let people have nice things? ¯(ツ)/¯
