logcli (former logbook)

Hey

I wanted to learn more about C and improve the memoir program. So I present logcli! With logcli you can take little notes, while you are in the command line by simply typing a small L:

l <Your little notes>

The entries are saved in ~/.config/logcli/logcli.log together with the date and the directory and have the form:

YYYYMMDDHHmm
$(pwd) 
<note body>

You can make longer notes with

l log     # log is optional
this is
an entry
          # an empty line

You can search for a particular directory, date or word in your notes with

l dir|date|body REGEX

This means "l date ^2011" will find all the notes from 2011.

"l help" prints a little help message.

There is now an AUR package.

Have fun and tell me, how you like it. Any improvements are wellcome!

Edit: renamed program and added aur package

Looks good. I will definately try it out soon.

Two things you may want to consider:
1) The name of your software.
http://packages.python.org/Logbook/index.html
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=40675
2) Creating an AUR package.

Thank you.
