First off: as i said in the other thread already, if this is homework or classwork you need to post in the special forum part :
Homework & Coursework Questions.
Second: if you have tried code and it doesn't work - post it here, however buggy. How are we supposed to tell you what you did wrong if we can't see what you did?
And, finally: please do post multiple times just because you don't get an immediate answer. We are volunteers here, this is not a paid helpdesk. It is not unusual to wait a day for an answer. If you need immediate, responsible help please pay a professional to work for you.

blaze-add
BLAZE-ADD(1) BlazeBlogger Documentation BLAZE-ADD(1)
NAME
blaze-add - adds a blog post or a page to the BlazeBlogger repository
SYNOPSIS
blaze-add [-pqCPV] [-b directory] [-E editor] [-a author] [-d date] [-t title] [-k keywords] [-T tags] [-u url] [file...]
blaze-add -h|-v
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.

-P, --post, --posts
Tells blaze-add to add a blog post or blog posts. This is the default option.
-C, --no-processor

Enables displaying of all messages. This is the default option.
-h, --help
Displays usage 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.
EXAMPLE USAGE
Write a new blog post in an external text editor:
~]$ blaze-add
Add a new blog post from a file:
~]$ blaze-add new_packages.txt
Successfully added the post with ID 10.
