## Config File

Create `~/.config/dnote/dnoterc`:

## Tips

- **Use specific book names**: `python`, `bash`, `docker`, `kubernetes`, `ideas`
- **Search is full-text**: Works across all note content
- **Indexes are 1-based**: First note is `1`, not `0`
- **Pipes work great**: Capture command output directly
- **Sync optional**: Works fully offline, sync when ready
