DESCRIPTION

       blaze-add adds a blog post or a page to the BlazeBlogger repository. If a file is supplied, it adds the content of that file, otherwise an
       external text editor is opened for you. Note that there are several special forms and placeholders that can be used in the text, and that
       will be replaced with a proper data when the blog is generated.

   Special Forms
       <!-- break -->
	   A mark to delimit a blog post synopsis.

   Placeholders
       %root%
	   A relative path to the root directory of the blog.

       %home%
	   A relative path to the index page of the blog.

       %page[id]%
	   A relative path to a page with the supplied id.

       %post[id]%
	   A relative path to a blog post with the supplied id.

       %tag[name]%
	   A relative path to a tag with the supplied name.

OPTIONS

       -b directory, --blogdir directory
	   Allows you to specify a directory in which the BlazeBlogger repository is placed. The default option is a current working directory.

       -E editor, --editor editor
	   Allows you to specify an external text editor. When supplied, this option overrides the relevant configuration option.

       -t title, --title title
	   Allows you to specify the title of a blog post or page.

       -a author, --author author
	   Allows you to specify the author of a blog post or page.

       -d date, --date date
	   Allows you to specify the date of publishing of a blog post or page.

       -k keywords, --keywords keywords
	   Allows you to specify a comma-separated list of keywords attached to a blog post or page.

       -T tags, --tags tags
	   Allows you to supply a comma-separated list of tags attached to a blog post.

       -u url, --url url

       -P, --post, --posts
	   Tells blaze-add to add a blog post or blog posts. This is the default option.

       -C, --no-processor
	   Disables processing a blog post or page with an external application. For example, if you use Markdown to convert the lightweight
	   markup language to the valid HTML output, this will enable you to write this particular post in plain HTML directly.

       -q, --quiet
	   Disables displaying of unnecessary messages.

       -V, --verbose
	   Enables displaying of all messages. This is the default option.

       -v, --version
	   Displays version information and exits.

ENVIRONMENT

       EDITOR
	   Unless the core.editor option is set, BlazeBlogger tries to use system-wide settings to decide which editor to use.
