Setup

The steps below will assist the user in setting up rodo

GNU/Linux

1. Setup a $PATH

   1. Create a directory for your $PATH by running mkdir ~/bin/
   2. Associate your $PATH with the ~/bin/ folder you created by running echo "export PATH=~/bin:\$PATH" >> .bashrc

2. Using the binary

   1. Copy the rodo binary file to your $PATH folder by running cp /path/to/rodo ~/bin/
   2. Make the rodo binary file executable by running chmod u+x ~/bin/rodo

3. Creating a wrapper

   1. Create an empty wrapper file by running touch ~/bin/rodo.
   2. Add the following contents show below to it

   #!/usr/bin/env bash
   racket ~/path/to/rodo.rkt "$@"
   

   For example, if you downloaded the project to your ~/downloads/ folder you would change the line racket ~/path/to/rodo.rkt "$@" to racket ~/downloads/rodo/rodo.rkt "$@"

   3. Save the file
   4. Make the rodo wrapper file executable by runningchmod u+x ~/bin/rodo

Usage

ls - Lists items from the list

add - Adds an entry to the list

Note: You may have to run rodo ls to see which number corresponds to which item when removing items.
