quick update. i initially used a shell script to add some boilerplate code, including a <link> to header.js... which added the rest of the boilerplate.
now, newpost.fish adds everything by itself.
why didnt i do that before.
"oh, instead of copy/pasting my header to every new post, i can do it with a script! that makes things sooo much easier! but now i have to copy/paste the script to every new post. ah, how about i automate this and only this the normal way. now i've done two extra steps!"
Dumbass.
oh well. that just what it's like to use the computer.
shit now i have to rewrite all my old posts so i can delete the file
...maybe i should learn git or something so i can revert changes and stuff.
much to think about.
edit: ok i remember i added the javascript so in case i wanted to add the header to non-blog posts. which was smmart except that means i have to use javascript and :( i would rather do it by hand thx
