NAME

       hnb - Hierarchical notebook

SYNOPSIS

       hnb [file] [options] [command [command] .. ]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the hnb hierarchical notebook.

       hnb  is  an  ncurses  program  to  organize  many  kinds of data in one place, for example
       addresses, todo lists, ideas, book reviews or to store snippets of brainstorming, to  make
       a   structured   packing   list   or   just   to   take   random  notes.   It  can  export
       ascii/html/latex/postscript, supports todo checkboxes, checkbox trees with percentages and
       searching.

       hnb  uses  a  simple  ascii file for storing your notes. This file can be specified on the
       command line. If not specified, ~/.hnb is loaded (or created if missing).

OPTIONS

       hnb can be invoked with the following options:

       -h, --help
              Show summary of options.

       -v, --version
              Show version of program.

       -t, --tutorial
              Load the tutorial instead of a database.

       -rc <file>
              Load another config file than default.

       -ui <curses|cli>
              Specify user interface to use.

       -e     Run commands in noninteractive mode (start hnb with the cli ui and type  `help'  to
              get more information).

FILES

       ~/.hnb The  default  file  for your notes. To use another, specify its name on the command
              line.

       ~/.hnbrc
              The default configuration file. To load another config file than default,  use  the
