# Setup
Follow the steps below to set up rodo on the available
platform(s)
## GNU/Linux
Follow the steps below to set up rodo on GNU/Linux
### Set up a $PATH
1. Create a directory for your `$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 $PATH
1. Create a file in your `~/bin/` directory with the following contents in it:
```
#!/usr/bin/env bash
racket ~/path/to/rodo.rkt "$@"
```
For example, if you downloaded the project to your
`~/downloads/` folder you would change the line `racket
~/path/to/rodo.rkt "$@"` to `racket
~/downloads/rodo/rodo.rkt "$@"`.
If you prefer to use an executable, rather than a wrapper,
you can create an executable binary file with `raco exe
file-name-here.rkt`.
2. Save the file
3. Make the file executable by running `chmod u+x ~/bin/name-of-your-file`

# Usage
Type `rodo` plus one of the options below with a space
between `rodo` and the option.
`init` - Initializes a file in `~/.rodo/todo-list` by default
`ls` - Lists items from the list
`add` - Adds an entry to the list
`rm` - Removes an item from the list
**Note:** You may have to run `rodo ls` to see which number corresponds to which item when removing items.
## Usage examples
The examples below assume that you have rodo [set up](https://github.com/m455/rodo#set-up-a-path) in your `$PATH`
`rodo init`
`rodo ls`
`rodo add bread` (Single-word entry)
`rodo add "go to the bank"` (Multi-word entry)
`rodo rm 1`
# Configuring rodo
Right now, the configurations can be found in the `config.rkt file`. Settings, such as program name, path, and directory can be changed.
