Mind my thoughts.

Mind

Mind my thoughts.

Idea

A 'stack-based' note-taking app.

In other words, things go on the stack, things come off the stack. Stuff that's way down the stack will probably never be referenced again, but it's there!

• Not a TODO app (no dates, no GTD).

Requirements

1. Simple.

It must be immediately obvious how to use it.

Some example commands:

mind "#shopping beets"
mind "Bring the washing in when I get home!"
mind "#shopping carrots and celery"
mind "Call boss about the thing."
mind
 > 1. [ 1s ago...] -> Call boss about the thing.
 > 2. [ 3s ago...] -> #shopping carrots and celery
 > 3. [ 5s ago...] -> Bring the washing in when I get home!
 > 4. [10s ago...] -> #shopping beets

mind ls shopping
 > 1. carrots and celery
 > 2. beets

mind tick #shopping.2

mind forget #1
 > As you wish, "Call boss..." is gone!

mind
 > 1. [30s ago...] -> #shopping carrots and celery
 > 2. [38s ago...] -> Bring the washing in when I get home!

mind tick 2
 > Awesome! Archiving "Bring the washing in when I get home!"

2. Bring joy

For example, it replies "Good job!" when you complete something. It doesn't make me look at all the tasks I never completed from 3 years ago!

3. Use anywhere (eventually).

• Offline mode (CLI) for Laptop.
• Web interface for Phone.

Implementation

• SQLite as storage format.
• Try to keep it to one Python file?
• Markdown support?
• Python script initially.
• Web interface (eventually).
• Hashtags? @ symbol?

Hair-brained schemes

• Ability to scan text (e.g. sticky notes).
• Connect to Chrome/Firefox bookmarks.
