CLI Diary

This is a text based diary, inspired by khal. Diary entries are stored in raw text. You may say C & ncurses are old, I say paper is older..

Usage

Set the EDITOR environment variable to your favourite text editor:
```
export EDITOR=vim
```
Compile (requires ncurses):
```
make
```

Note: for *BSD users run gmake.

Install the binary (optional):
```
sudo make install
```
By default this will copy the binary to /usr/local/bin. To use a different path prefix, type sudo make --PREFIX=/usr install to use /usr/bin for example. You can uninstall diary with sudo make uninstall.
Run the diary, with the folder for the text files as first argument:
```
diary ~/.diary
```
Instead of this, you can also set the environment variable DIARY_DIR to the desired directory. If both an argument and the environment variable are given, the argument takes precedence.

The text files in this folder will be named 'yyyy-mm-dd'.

Use the keypad or VIM-like shortcuts to move between dates:

e, Enter  Edit the current entry
d, x      Delete/remove current entry
t         Jump to today
s         Jump to specific day

j, down   go forward by 1 week
k, up     go backward by 1 week
h, left   go left by 1 day
l, right  go right by 1 day

N         go to the previous diary entry
n         go to the next diary entry

g         go to the first date
G         go to the last date

J         Go forward by 1 month
K         Go backward by 1 month

q         quit the program
