# TL;DR
1. Make sure [Racket](https://racket-lang.org/) is installed
2. `git clone https://github.com/m455/rodo` into a directory of your choice
3. `cd` into the `rodo` directory
4. Choose one of the options below for running `rodo`.
* To use `rodo` using the Racket interpreter run: `racket rodo.rkt`
* To use `rodo` as an single-file executable follow the two steps below:
1. Run `raco exe rodo.rkt` to compile the `rodo` into a single-file executable
2. Run `./rodo`
5. (optional) Add the following to your `$PATH` directory to run `rodo` from anywhere.

* To use rodo as an single-file executable follow the two steps below:
1. Run `raco exe rodo.rkt` to compile rodo into a single-file executable.
2. Run `./rodo`.
5. (optional) Create a wrapper in your `$PATH` directory to run rodo from anywhere:
```
#!/usr/bin/env bash
racket ~/path/to/rodo.rkt "$@"
```
Note: If you made an executable, remember to change the `rodo.rkt` part above to `rodo`

# Installing rodo
# Requirements
This section will guide you through installing `rodo`, so you can use it on your platform.
The following items must be installed before you can use rodo:
## Requirements
This section will provide you with the requirements needed to run `rodo`. This
section will guide you through downloading Racket and downloading the `rodo`
source code.
* [Racket 6.x](https://racket-lang.org/)
* `rodo` source code
* Racket: [https://racket-lang.org/](https://racket-lang.org/)
* rodo's source code: [https://github.com/m455/rodo](https://github.com/m455/rodo)
## Downloading Racket
Racket can be download using your machine's package manager. Depending on what
package manager you use, commands may vary. See the two sections below for a
list of examples using the `apt` and `pacman` package managers on the command
line.
### To download Racket using apt
1. run `sudo apt install racket`
Note: You may need to run this command as root
### To download Racket using pacman
1. run `pacman -Syu racket`
Note: You may need to run this command as root
1. run `sudo apt install racket` on the command line
## Downloading the rodo source code
The `rodo` source code is available from this repository, and can be downloaded using `git`.
### To download the rodo source code
1. run `git clone https://github.com/m455/rodo`
Tip: If you want to download this into a different directory, you can specify a
directory by running the command below:
```
git clone https://github.com/m455/rodo your-directory-name/
```
# Setup
For convenience, `rodo` can be added to your `$PATH`. This section will guide
you through setting up a `$PATH` and adding `rodo` to your `$PATH`.
For convenience, rodo can be added to your `$PATH`. This section will guide

## Setting up a $PATH
A `$PATH` is a directory in which you can place executable files or script files. These files
can then be ran from any directory on your machine.
A `$PATH` is a directory in which you can place executable files or scripts.
After placing executable files or scripts in your `$PATH` directory, you can run
these files or scripts from any directory on your machine.
Tip: If you have set up a `$PATH` already, then skip to the next step, [Adding
`rodo` to your `$PATH`](https://github.com/m455/rodo#adding-rodo-to-your-path).
### To set up a $PATH
Tip: If you have set up a `$PATH` already, then skip to the next step, [Adding rodo to your $PATH](https://github.com/m455/rodo#adding-rodo-to-your-path).
1. Create a directory for your `$PATH` by running `mkdir ~/bin/`
2. Add your newly-created `~/bin/` to your `$PATH` by running `echo "export PATH=~/bin:\$PATH" >> .bashrc`
## Adding rodo to your $PATH
Adding `rodo` to your `$PATH` allows you to run `rodo` from any directory on your machine.
### To add rodo to your $PATH
1. Create a file in your `~/bin/` directory with the following contents in it:

2. Save the file
3. Make the file executable by running `chmod u+x ~/bin/name-of-your-file`
Tip: Racket can make executables. You can do this by running the following
command when in the same folder as the `rodo.rkt` file:
```
raco exe rodo.rkt
```
# List of commands

This section lists and describes rodo's commands.
* `-h` or `--help` displays the help message
* `init` creates a file called `to-do.txt` in `~/.rodo/` by default
* `ls` displays numbered items in the to-do list
* `add` adds an item to the to-do list
* `rm` removes an item from the to-do list
* `init` creates a list file (See the `config.rkt` file for the default * location of this file)
* `ls` displays your list
* `add` adds an item to your list
* `rm` removes an item from your list
Note: You may have to run `rodo ls` to see which number corresponds to which item when removing items.

# Configuring `rodo`
# Configuring rodo
**Caution: Changing the `config.rkt` file should be done at your own risk as it may break `rodo`'s functionality**
**Caution: Changing the `config.rkt` file should be done at your own risk as it may break rodo's functionality**
Right now, the configurations can be found in the `config.rkt file`. Settings,
such as the program name, directory, and the filename of the todo list file can
be changed.
# New features
Now the default directory and todo list file have better default permissions:
* `rodo` is now licensed under AGPL3!
* `~/.rodo/` is set to 700 by default
* `~/.rodo/to-do.txt` is set to 600 by default.
# To-dos
# Todos
When I have time, I plan on adding the following features to rodo:
- Add a purpose, context, and overview for each h1 in `README.md`
- A boolean color option in the `config.rkt` file
- Encrypt/decrypt `to-do.txt` file
- Colour
- Encrypted list files
