2025-11-30 Oddμ new
====================

I recently decided I needed a new oddmu new command so that I could
quickly start writing a new page. I ended up writing a fish function
instead of adding code to Oddμ itself.

    function oddmu
        if test "$argv[1]" = new
           set date (date --iso)
           if test -z $argv[2]
              set filename $date.md
           else
              set filename (date --iso)-$argv[2].md
           end
           if test ! -f "$filename"
               echo "# $date " >> $filename
           end
           if $EDITOR $filename
               oddmu notify $filename
           end
        else
            command oddmu $argv
        end
    end

When I run oddmu new something on the command line, it creates a page
for the current day and "today", calls my favourite editor to edit it,
and calls oddmu notify on the newly created file at the end.

This works well with the make snapshot, make download, make diff
and make upload commands based on the Makefile.
