Usage #

Once configured, you can use Tab to autocomplete commands and book names:

$ dnote v j<hit tab>
$ dnote v javascript
# Lists all notes in the javascript book

Autocomplete works with:

  • Command aliases - v expands to view
  • Partial book names - j completes to javascript
  • Multiple books - If multiple books match, Tab shows all options
