+# How I spent this day
+
+A simple but useful personal diary application.
+
+The sole purpose of this application is to quickly create a file
+and open it in a text editor so that I can take a note before I lose my desire.
+Notes can be found in the `~/.local/histd` directory.
+
+```sh
+tree ~/.local/histd
+# /home/user/.local/histd
+# └── 2022
+#     └── 08
+#         ├── 18.txt
+#         └── 19.txt
+```
+
+## Usage
+```sh
+./histd.py
+```
+or
+```sh
+python3 histd.py
+```
