# Terminal Velocity

Terminal Velocity is currently in maintenance mode. Python pip installs are 

still supported and the software is stable for day to day use with python 2.

The software is being moved into maintenance mode because both authors 

no longer use terminal_velocity. Life happens and finding the time to maintain 

it is difficult. We hope you understand.

**If you find a true bug and need help then please reach out via email to Vincent.

You can find my email in my profile https://github.com/vhp.**

Terminal Velocity is a fast note-taking app for the UNIX terminal, that

focuses on letting you create or find a note as quickly and easily as

possible, then uses your `$EDITOR` to open and edit the note. It is

heavily inspired by the OS X app [Notational

Velocity](http://notational.net/). For screenshots and features, see the

[Terminal Velocity website](https://github.com/vhp/terminal_velocity).
