Installation

The best way to get moments is to clone the mercurial repository:

hg clone http://bitbucket.org/cbrandt/moments
cd moments
sudo python setup.py install

Another way to get moments is via easy_install. This version is not always the latest and greatest:

sudo easy_install moments

Editors

See the editors/ directory for different configurations for adding a time stamp command to your editor.

Currently there are notes for Emacs, VI, and Gedit. Evernote conversions are in the works.

Requirements

Make sure you have the following items available on your computer:

• Python: (currently using versions 2.5 and up) http://www.python.org
• Image manipulations are an optional part of the path.py module and require:
  • Python Image Library (or Pillow)
  • jhead command line utility
• Mercurial/DVCS is useful for staying in sync with the source distribution, and also for synchronizing your own notes across different machines.

Notes for installing and configuring a computer system that runs python are beyond the scope of this document. For details and recommendations on this process, please see:
