``jrnl`` is a simple journal application for the command line.

You can use it to easily create, search, and view journal entries. Journals are
stored as human-readable plain text, and can also be encrypted using  `AES
encryption <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Encryption_Standard>`_.

In a Nutshell
-------------

To make a new entry, just enter

.. code-block:: sh

   jrnl yesterday: Called in sick. Used the time to clean the house and write my
   book.

``yesterday:`` is  interpreted by ``jrnl`` as a timestamp. Everything until the
first sentence ending (either ``.``\ , ``?``\ , or ``!``\ ) is interpreted as the title, and
the rest as the body. In your journal file, the result will look like this:

.. code-block::

   [2012-03-29 09:00] Called in sick.
   Used the time to clean the house and write my book.


If you just call ``jrnl``\ , you will be prompted to compose your entry - but you
can also configure *jrnl* to use your external editor.

For more information, please read the
`documentation <https://jrnl.sh>`_.
