Using VimWiki as a distributed, encrypted lab notebook for programming

A difficulty I have with wikis is I find that tree structure data of this sort gets stale easily, and requires a lot of tending to avoid this.

A tool ppl might find useful that uses a flat structure: saga. All it does is creates directories in a way so they will always sort in chronological order.

Example:

    $ saga python pattern socket client
    /home/cturner/saga/20121124.myhostname.myusername.ac.enter.some.terms
    $

This turned into a long reply, so I blog'd the rest.

Correction to editing error in parent. The resulting directory would be called /home/cturner/saga/20121124.myhostname.myusername.ac.python.pattern.socket.client
