Philosophy Dreamdir follows the Unix philosophy, as follows: All dreams are stored in plain text formatted in a consistent way. The format is human-readable and is normally read and written directly. Dreamdir is first and foremost a format, not an application. Simple code designed to do one thing well is provided to make working with the format easier. In addition to the provided code, standard Unix text-processing tools and simple scripts can easily manipulate dreams stored in a Dreamdir. Important factoids Data format: Each dream is stored in its own plain text file. Each dream file begins with a list of data fields (called headers ), which can store things like the date, the names of people who appeared in the dream, and tags. The remainder of the dream file is the text of your entry. Application: The dr script offers powerful and intuitive search functionality and several other useful tools to create new dreams, combine tags, and so on. It easily integrates with other Unix tools. Example user scripts are provided for tasks like graphing day-to-day recall and generating indexes. A small Python library is also available.
