Alt never reached the app, so the tile keys are Ctrl-h/j/k/l and Ctrl-Shift-h/j/k/l, taken before vim sees them, and h/l walk the tiles while reading. Ctrl-Q lowers the scratchpad from the editor straight into the last note, and raises it back to the document, still writing. The drawer sits in the porthole's opening with a full rim. The board, the agenda, the calendar and a card's back live on a plan screen that S goes to and comes back from, so documents and views never share the screen. The calendar fits its tile instead of scrolling.

# The diary
|
|
|
|
The space with the diary role is a journal. Each document in it is an entry,
|
|
filed under the day it is about.
|
|
|
|
- `T` (or `:today`) opens today's entry, and starts it when there is none.
|
|
- `[d` and `]d` step to the entry before or after the one open, by date.
|
|
- `:date 2026-10-01` files the open entry under another day.
|
|
- `:new 2026-10-01` starts an entry for a day that has passed.
|
|
|
|
Days are counted in `WORKSPACE_TIMEZONE`, the same as the evening reminder, so
|
|
an entry written after midnight on a trip still lands on the right day.
|
|
|
|
## The calendar
|
|
|
|
`C` (or `:cal`) shows the diary a month at a time, on the
|
|
[plan screen](Boards-and-Agenda.md#views), under the agenda. The month is
|
|
fitted into its tile rather than scrolled.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| key | what it does |
|
|
| --- | --- |
|
|
| `h` / `l` | a day back / forward |
|
|
| `j` / `k` | a week forward / back |
|
|
| `H` / `L` | a month back / forward |
|
|
| `.` | today |
|
|
| `Enter` | open the day's entry among the documents, or start one dated that day; `S` comes back |
|
|
| `q`, `Esc` | back to the documents |
|
|
|
|
A dot marks a day with an entry. A number says how many when there are more
|
|
than one.
|
|
|
|
## The day template
|
|
|
|
When the diary has a `templates` folder with a document called `day` in it,
|
|
every new entry starts from it: from `T`, `o`, the calendar, or a
|
|
[capture](Capture.md) to the diary. For example:
|
|
|
|
```markdown
|
|
## {{weekday}}
|
|
|
|
### What happened
|
|
|
|
### What I am thankful for
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See [Writing](Writing.md#templates) for the placeholders. The templates are not
|
|
entries: they are not on the calendar and do not count as having written today.
|
|
|
|
## On this day
|
|
|
|
The [agenda](Boards-and-Agenda.md#the-agenda) ends with what you wrote on the
|
|
same day in earlier years. `j` walks into them and `Enter` opens one.
|
|
|
|
## The reminder
|
|
|
|
With mail set up, an evening reminder arrives at `WORKSPACE_REMINDER_AT`
|
|
(20:00 by default) when nothing was written in the diary that day. See
|
|
[Backup and mail](Backup-and-Mail.md#mail).
