nte

A simple note-taker for unix. So simple that the 'o' in note was too complicated for the name of the program.

Set-up:

To be able to use nte anywhere, place nte.py in your home directory. Then, open .bash_profile (in your home directory) in your favorite text editor and add the following line: alias nte='python ~/nte.py' Restart your shell and you are good to go! Note: There are many other ways to make nte available anywhere, this is just one of the simplest and that's why I'm listing it here

Taking Notes:

Enter nte into your shell and press enter. Then, take a note! Alternatively, enter nte "some message to a note" or nte "some title to a note" "some message to a note" to take notes even more quickly.

Viewing Notes:

Enter nte v and view/delete/move notes around.

Editing Notes:

Enter nte e to open the notes file in Vim

*This program is supposed to be usable by those with very little knowledge of Unix, and the README is designed to reflect that
