Roughly analogous to a notebook or a tab.\n- **Block** — an individual note within a buffer, written in Markdown and rendered with syntax highlighting in the terminal.\n\n## Installation\n\n```bash\nbrew install yagnikpt/tap/tpaper\n```\n\n```bash\nbun install -g @yagnikpt/tpaper\n```\n\n## Keybindings \u0026 Features\n* `ctrl+h` — opens the keymaps menu\n\n### Editing\n* `i` — Edit the block inline using the built-in editor\n* `ctrl+i` — Edit the block using your external system editor (configured via `$EDITOR`, defaults to `nano`)\n* `enter` — Edit block (opens the built-in inline editor by default, or your system editor if configured)\n\n## Configuration\n\nRun `tpaper --help` to see the necessary flags and options.\n\nThe configuration file is located at `~/.config/tpaper-cli/config.yaml` (Linux example).\n\nYou can customize the following settings:\n\n```yaml\n# ~/.config/tpaper-cli/config.yaml\n\n# If true, pressing enter/return on a block opens it in your external system editor by default.\nsystemEditorByDefault: false\n```\n\n## Data storage\n\nEverything is stored locally. The exact paths depend on your OS.\n\n| Kind | Path (Linux example) |\n|---|---|\n| Buffers | `~/.local/share/tpaper-cli/` |\n| Config | `~/.config/tpaper-cli/config.yaml` |\n\nBuffers are plain Markdown files. Blocks are delimited by HTML comments so the files remain human-readable outside the app.\n\n## Development\n\n```bash\nbun install\nbun dev        # run with file watching\n```\n\n## Building\n\n```bash\nbun run build\n```\n\nBuilds for all supported platforms (linux-x64, darwin-arm64, linux-arm64, windows-x64, darwin-x64).\n\n## Stack\n\n- [OpenTUI](https://opentui.com) — terminal UI framework\n- [Solid.js](https://solidjs.com) — reactive UI layer\n- [Bun](https://bun.sh) — runtime and bundler\n- [js-yaml](https://github.com/nodeca/js-yaml) — config serialization\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fyagnikpt%2Ftpaper","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fyagnikpt%2Ftpaper","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fyagnikpt%2Ftpaper/lists"}
