Thanks, appreciate the kind words! Sounds like your take on this workflow has a couple of cool features, especially the year-based archives and the weekly "done" list with email.

I considered archiving at the year level, but realized that the month level of granularity is likely what I actually want because a yearly file would be quite large. I'd be curious to hear your thoughts - have you found the yearly archive file to be cumbersome?

I also love the idea of the weekly done list. My take for textnote is rather than build that functionality into the CLI, I prefer to augment it with scripts that take advantage of common commandline tooling and the plain text files. I might give your "email done list to my boss at the end of the week" workflow a try as a script on textnote files. I'll let you know how it works out.

Good stuff, really appreciate your comments!
