The moment Module

An Moment is the foundation for a journal. It does not require a timestamp, but most moments use one.

In its most simple (text based) form, a moment consists of:

* tags
data
\n

With a timestamp:

*timestamp tags
data
\n

class moments.moment.Moment(data=u'', tags=[], created='', path=u'', now=False)

Object to hold a unique Moment

#*2011.07.03 09:16:58 #by not having a separate moment and entry (no-timestamp) #we lose the ability to automatically assign a default timestamp #within the moment object itself #shouldn’t be that big of a deal, since in practice we’re often #creating moments withing the context of a journal # #if not, just pass in the timestamp on init

also adding a parameter ‘now’ to set the timestamp automatically on init default is false
