How to use

You'll need to create the following directories:

• posts/
• pages/ - Templated pages
• assets/ - Static assets
• templates/ - Templates you can call with include_tmpl

To make a new post, create a file with the following format in the posts/ folder:

title=Your blog title
desc=[Not yet implemented] Description for the RSS feed
---
This is some content.

## About this content
Markdown is supported.

There is no set schema for tags, so you can put whatever you want as a tag. However, it may not be used by the build script.

Once you're happy with your post, use the ptouch script to set the created tag:

$ ./scripts/ptouch.pl -n posts/your_new_post

And then compile the site:

$ ./scripts/build.pl

The site can then be pushed with rsync, sftp, netcat, etc.
