midnight(1)                General Operation Manual                midnight(1)

NAME
       midnight - virtual pub

SYNOPSIS
       midnight [options]

DESCRIPTION
       midnight allows you to write on midnight.pub, a virtual pub.

       midnight  needs  your session token in ~/.config/.midnight to function.
       To get it, connect on midnight from the web and copy the content of the
       session cookie in the above file (create it first).

       When  used with no option, midnight uses the content of stdin to create
       a new post.

NEW POST
       midnight reads data from stdin. It parses stdin the following way:

       First line will be used as the title. Second  line  needs  to  be  left
       blank. Third line and what follows is the content.

       echo "Hello world!\n\nThis is my new post." | midnight

OPTIONS
       -r <post id>
              Send  the content of stdin as a reply to <post id>. For example,
              to answer to post 42:

              echo "good question!" | midnight -r 42

       -t <reply id>
              Send the content of stdin as a reply to a  reply  (thread).  For
              example, to answer to a reply with id 48:

              echo "I enjoy your reply!" | midnight -t 48
