cnotes VS QOwnNotes

I use this.

The help page came up. I am am testing it on a common-lisp program I am working on: https://gitlab.com/FOSSilized_Daemon/cnotes/-/blob/lisp-rewrite/src/cnotes.lisp

I am working on implementing command-line arguments for a program I am writing. I have a main function (I call them init functions) that I use to setup everything needed for the other code within my program to function properly. In that main function I have this code that handles my command-line arguments using unix:opts, but for some reason it is not working. Using this test.sh script I tried to run ./test.sh --help, but sbcl just complained that arguments was defined but never used.

Shamless Plug (under a rewrite for common-lisp so if you like the shell version fork it while you can). Also, good job taking notes on install issues! I think there is a program that sends those issues upstream, but I could be thinking of a different OS.

Yep! I just found that on another documentation page. Finally working! Thank you so much.

I have been working on learning lisp for about a month now and am working writing my first program on my own. For this project I decided I wanted to rewrite a shell script I use often called cnotes as this project is mainly just working with the basics of the language. The issue I am facing is with writing a function to get shell environment variables. In C I did this using the getenv function and in shell this is rather simple, lisp however seems more difficult in that this has not been standardized within common lisp. I did some research and found this post which gives a function to get environment variables. Being new to lisp I don't fully understand everything this does, but from what I can gather reading the code and the documentation it works like this:

For this makefile I copied what I used for cnotes which works well.

QOwnNotes: A plain-text file notepad with markdown support and todo list manager. Tech Stack: C++, Qt.

QOwnNotes

I use QownNotes myself. The notes are saved in Markdown format so that you can easily use them in other programs. An export function to HTML or PDF files is also available, if I'm not mistaken.

A lighter widget based solution that I know of is https://github.com/pbek/QOwnNotes/tree/main/src/libraries/qlitehtml No idea if that can work in QtQuick.

Personally, I use https://www.qownnotes.org. Notes are saved as Markdown files and are therefore easily readable. The rest of your requirements should be met by the tool as well.
