+I wrote a "composer" for my blog...a script that generates a file with front matter and handles moving it to the proper directory. I found I needed to add a time-stamp to all my posts so they'd
+display in the right order. So in the process, I made it do a bunch of other stuff. I'll do a proper write-up on it later. I've got stuff I want to do.
