To file and exchange texts, `txt` uses plain-text headers on the top of
text files. The basic headers include an
identifier, topics, authors and a date. It also needs to know basic repository information.
## Initialise
`txt init` will initialise a text repository in the current directory. A `.logarion` directory is created, containing a
configuration file, which editable with a text editor. That's where you can name the text repository and declare the
archivists' names, which will also function as the default author name for new texts.

## New texts
To create new text files with the header fields to populate, use `txt new "title"`, replacing `title` with the text's
title. The command will return the filename of the new text. The filename starts with a part of the ID and the title of
the text. Use the file name to open it with your text editor.

## Filing
New texts can be filed in different subdirectories to create sub-repositories of finished texts. One use of that is to
separate some of the texts to share with others. Use `txt file ..`, replacing the dots with text file names and
directories, and txt will file (hard-link) each text into every directory specified.

Note, this is different from using the Topics header field to declare the text's subjects.

## Convert
Generate web sites and Gemini capsuled of a text collection using `txt convert`. First `txt file` some texts in a
subdirectory (`txt file a.txt b.txt .. some/`) then call `txt convert somedir`. It will scan all text files in there and
convert them to other formats. It will also produce index files for those formats and also generate and `index.pck`
file. This index pack is a feed for other people using `txt. Upload the `
index.pck` and the text files of the subdirectory to a host of your choice. If the host provides HTTP or Gemini access, upload `
.htm` and `.gem` files respectively.

## Pull
To use `txt` to clone remote repositories, add the URLs of the repositories in `peers.priv.conf` or `peers.pub.conf`.
Both files must be created first. Once the files are populated with the URLs, run `txt pull` and it will clone all of
the text files shared in those repositories in a local `peers/` subdirectory.

As the name suggests `peers.priv.conf` is private and the URLs contained in it will not be copied into `index.pck`. On
the other hand, URLs in `peers.pub.conf` will be included in the `index.pck`, providing a way to discover other text
repositories.
