I wrote this tool for accessing Standard Notes on the command line:

https://github.com/tannercollin/standardnotes-fs

I imagine it would integrate with bash_log quite well.

Back your data up first, and I'm guessing you could just `cd` into your notes folder then use bash_log straight from there. You could also set LOG_DIRECTORY in your .bashrc to be where ever you mount Standard Notes.
