|
* Each user has a `~/.nicethings` directory.
|
|
|
|
|
* Users can add messages to this file using the `nicethings add "your nice message here"` interface.
|
|
|
|
|
* Each message is stored in the file as separate lines. No file format is used.
|
|
|
|
|
* Users can display a numbered list of the messages they have stored using the `nicethings ls` interface.
|
|
|
|
|
* Users can remove their own messages using the `nicethings rm 2` interface, where the number refers to an item in their list.
|
|
|
|
|
* Users can view a random message from a random user using the `nicethings` interface (with no arguments).
