This looks like a neat project. I already keep lots of notes using similar, but not identical formats. Any chance you'd consider adding some kind of configuration option?

For reference, here are the two styles I use:

Dated:

## 2015-01-20 15:54

Entry goes here.

Second entry without timestamp


## 2015-01-20 16:03

Third entry with timestamp, etc.

Records:

- 2015-01-20 | Entry goes here

I use the former for chunks of prose and the latter for single line entries. I don't mix the two types in the same file. "Dated" files generally go from top to bottom, but not always. "Record" files are always alpha sorted.

(Oh, and I know that the second type is not standard, but until CommonMark establishes a standard for tables, I'm sticking to it :)

Thank you! Ah, that looks great! Definitely open to it; That said, I won't have any time to implement it in the nearest days, but if you do I'll merge you in! :)

PS: Now that I see this, I realise my markdown formatting is wrong, since I forgot adding an empty line between paragraphs as you did above! Will fix that asap!

Cheers!

Mmm, I could hard-code my settings, but I'm not sure how to go about reading & parsing a config file :) It's a bit beyond me.
