# NOTES
- Oopsy daisy! I added a month filter to the search option, mentioned it in the changelog, added it to the help in interactive mode, then forgot to put it in the regular old --help. So, you know, check out "bournal --help" more specific syntax. I also updated the manpage to be even more specific.
- Keep in mind the find option uses egrep for searches, which has slightly different syntax from grep (e.g. grep uses 'pretty\|pony' for finding "pretty OR pony", while egrep uses 'pretty|pony').
- Files encrypted with ccrypt WILL work between computers (assuming it's installed), so taking Bournal and all its entries with you on a flash drive will work just peachy. You can have entries automatically saved to the flash drive by changing the DIR variable to the path of your flashdrive, e.g.
DIR=/media/USB_VOL_NAME. However, if you run Bournal from a USB drive, you will need to predeed it with a shell e.g. sh bournal
- Other changes happened. Check them out in the changelog
