Add a webpage (through a different repo and account) –– make a quicknote account

Save memories to different files –– kind of like notes

What kinds of files can be imported? Just .txt files? Or, what should be allowed as importable files?

Add documentation for the VERSIONS.md file, just detailing what work is being done and what has been done, from version to version

The rename note function improperly appends names to the filelist such list-note prints a weird update.

When I tried to add a memory, I put single quotes around it (as suggested by the picture) but then the text wouldn't save.

This doesn't work as is.

🐛 Describe the bug

I attempted to install and use lst, but it seg faults immediately on the -l or -a options. I've reproduced this on a mac running Catalina and one running Mojave, and when installed via brew and when installed via downloaded package.

⚠️ Current behavior

$ lst
Liszt is an open-source note-taking software designed for personal use.

If you need help in general, type 'lst -help' or 'lst -h'
If you need help with a specific command, type 'lst -h <name_of_command>', such as for help with adding memories ('lst -h -') or removing a note ('lst -h -rm')
To view your version of Liszt, type 'lst -version' or 'lst -v'

Liszt uses the GNU General Public License v3, so you can edit, distribute, and otherwise meddle with any of the source code.
The only thing you can't do is take this software and make it closed-source and try to sell it. Liszt was designed to be free for everyone, forever.

$ lst -a

(hint: did you include the necessary arguments for this command? Run 'lst -h' to find out)
$ lst -a foo

✅ Expected behavior

I expected when I run lst -l, it will show an empty list of notes. And then when I run lst -a foo, it will add a note called foo.

💣 Steps to reproduce

$ brew tap liszt-music/liszt
$ brew install lst
$ lst -a

or alternatively:
select pkg file in github, download pkg, open pkg
$ /Library/Liszt/1.1.8/lst -a foo

Make this software available through download outside of just cloning the repo. Maybe use a website?

When you add a file, it adds it in your current working directory, as opposed to the .quicknote directory where it should be added. The path.isfile() function maybe is working, but it's not entirely clear.

The commands for Quick Note are very long and can be hard to type repeatedly. Think about shortening them

Can I complete the usage section in the readme?

Right now, the only way to test Quick Note is by using it. It would be highly beneficial to develop some sort of testing harness (probably written in shell) in order to test the functionality of the software

Add the ability to write 'remember --version' and the current version of Quick Note will be returned

'memorymanager' is a terrible name. It makes it sound like we are designing some kind of garbage collector for C++.

⚠️ Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

• Integrate with readthedocs.org for hosting the documentation.

💡 Describe the solution you'd like

• This can be implemented with the help of sphinx

🤚 Do you want to develop this feature yourself?

• Yes
• No

Add more information to the README.md file. It's pretty lacking as of now

The program currently assumes that the user has a bash alias remember='python3 /path/to/program/location'

This is not portable. Make it so.

Export note only allows users to export notes as .txt files. Maybe this should be the case, but it requires some thought

⚠️ Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

• It is better to have a standard coding convention for the entire project.

💡 Describe the solution you'd like

• PEP-8 is the official Python library coding style. It makes sense to stick to this as most IDEs and tools can enforce this standard.

🤚 Do you want to develop this feature yourself?

• Yes
• No

Overall documentation is pretty lacking. Also, updating the readme would be a good idea (just generally include more information about the project, etc.

Add a file that explains how people can contribute, make changes, pull requests, etc.

Right now, if the user inputs bad inputs for some Quick Note methods, the python will throw an error (which is not good). Instead, Quick Note should catch these.

🐛 Describe the bug

Specifically, the issue is that several methods repeat code, so it would be best to
decompose out helper functions to use.

🐛 Describe the bug

Liszt has some memleak issues:

• whenever scanf is used, valgrind reports that Liszt leaks some memory (this one may be a stdio issue)
• whenever wordfree is used, valgrind reports two memory leaks
• the commands -clar and -cln have a number of memleak errors, notably invalid read sizes and invalid frees
• the commands -ln and -lar have a number of memory leaks

💣 Steps to reproduce

Use the commands with valgrind to see what happens.

🐛 Describe the bug

After -cln command, inputting an -a command prompts the user to "name current note before switching notes." Since no memories were added to the hidden default note, no prompt is necessary.

Errors caused if user tries to remove the current note

Pretty self explanatory. Add the ability to password protect notes.

This doesn't totally vibe with the style of the software, but something to consider

It could even be called .default !

Add at the top how many memories there are
(maybe save this at the top of the file?)
Display this with remember --list

Have the program send update requests every so often

Hide default note.

When user changes note away from default note, prompt user to "add a name to your note before leaving."

Copy all memories from default into a new note with their new name, and then clear memories from default.
OR
Rename default note with that name, make it unhidden, and create a new hidden default note.

If you add a bad memory (i.e. enter in the wrong info), it's slow to remove what you entered. Maybe remove_memory with no row_number should just remove the last memory saved to the current note?

Add anything else that needs to be set up when the install.py file is run. Also, the user will have to run

python3 /path/to/install.py $USER

in order for this to run

EDIT: The install.py will need to add a default memory file, which can be called default.
The command for that could be as simple as

open('/Users/$USER/.quicknote/.default', 'w+')

EDIT #.2: There should also be some kind of message associated with the installation

Display can't be changed. Make it so default does oldest first but can give a flag to do in reverse?

Just a bug with the code. Filenames not being entered correctly into the file_list

Whenever I add one word memories such as:

"remembre hello",

it does not log hello as a memory.

PLEASE HELP THIS IS OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANTS

pls help

Nothing too complex. Just make this program portable to other operating systems (Linux shouldn't be hard).

Make more projects on the 'projects' tab. The 'Remember Software' one doesn't need to encompass everything.

Right now, archived notes aren't a thing. Once they do become a thing, make sure that clear notes is different between them.

I tried to add a note and then change that note, but it gave me this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Taps/scamacho23/homebrew-quicknote/main.py", line 128, in <module>
    main()	
  File "/usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Taps/scamacho23/homebrew-quicknote/main.py", line 117, in main

    cache_info[0] = name
IndexError: list assignment index out of range

There is a LOT of repeated code. Make some helper functions! (especially with file reading/writing)

It's currently not possible to remove an individual memory –– add this functionality!

I'm really impressed by this Project, how well it follows best practises, has CI and template PRs/ template Issues setup.

However i noticed that your .gitignore is full of stuff which is totally unrelated to this project and only
serves to confuse people and/or slow git down.

Example:

# Django stuff:
*.log
local_settings.py
db.sqlite3
db.sqlite3-journal

# Flask stuff:
instance/
.webassets-cache

Django is a Python web framework and this is a C Project.

If you want, i can try to clean it up for Hacktoberfest 🥳 . Just assign me the Issue.
