Was inspired by this, threw together this hack for vim users.
#! /usr/bin/env bash
cd ~/share # or wherever
echo >> notes.txt
date >> notes.txt
if [[ $# -ne 0 ]]; then
echo $@ >> notes.txt
fi
vim "+normal Go" +startinsert notes.txt
Enough to see if this will work for me.
I also aliased this to something short so I can quickly view notes starting at the bottom:
vim "+normal G" ~/share/notes.txt

- ernie24 7y agoI also would like to use something similar but I wish to add new text on the top of the file (so oldest notes go to the bottom). I ended with something like this: nvim -c "+normal ggO# $(date)" -c ':s/$/\r/' -c 'se nohlsearch' notes.md Would be interested in knowing if I can make this nicer/more efficient.
