Editing Entries

-e / --edit

Opens today’s daily note directly in your editor, instead of adding or listing an entry:

obsidian-logging -e

The editor used is $EDITOR, or vim if $EDITOR is not set.

Combine with -b/--back to edit a previous day’s note:

obsidian-logging -b 1 -e      # edit yesterday's note

This is handy for correcting a typo, reordering entries manually, or adding freeform content around the log section that the CLI itself doesn’t manage.
