Minion automates the boring parts of file management to let authors focus on writing. Deciding what to name a file, where to put it, and trying to find it later are all steps that can be delegated - to Minion.
In Vernor Vinge's novel, 'The Peace War', chess players can instantly upload thoughts from their minds into a computer for storage, and then recover and act on those thoughts later.
Minion is meant to be a first step on that path. Minion simplifies storing, tagging, and retrieving ideas, freeing it's user to focus on thinking.
- Capture thoughts in the moment. The note function gets an editor open to capture thoughts quickly.

- Never lose anything. The find, open and archive commands make sure that files are only a few keypresses away.
- Keep track of upcoming dates. The dates function displays recent and upcoming date strings that appear in files.
