* Use the `{{link}}` template variable when [formatting notes](docs/template-format.md) to print a link to the note, relative to the working directory.
* Use the `{{format-link path title}}` template helper to render a custom link.
* Customize the link format from the [note formats settings](docs/note-format.md). You can for example choose regular Markdown links, Wiki-links or a custom format.
*`--notebook-dir` does not change the working directory anymore, instead it sets manually the current notebook and disable auto-discovery. Use the new `--working-dir`/`-W` flag to run `zk` as if it was started from this path instead of the current working directory.
* For convenience, `ZK_NOTEBOOK_DIR` behaves like setting a `--working-dir` fallback, instead of `--notebook-dir`. This way, paths will be relative to the root of the notebook.
* A practical use case is to use `zk list -W .` when outside a notebook. This will list the notes in `ZK_NOTEBOOK_DIR` but print paths relative to the current directory, making them actionable from your terminal emulator.
* Use `--notebook-dir` or set `ZK_NOTEBOOK_DIR` to run `zk` as if it was started from this path instead of the current working directory.
* This allows running `zk` without being in a notebook.
* By setting `ZK_NOTEBOOK_DIR` in your shell configuration file (e.g. `~/.profile`), you are declaring a default global notebook which will be used when `zk` is not in a notebook.
* When the notebook directory is set explicitly, any path given as argument will be relative to it instead of the actual working directory.
* Find every note whose title is mentioned in the note you are working on with `--mentioned-by file.md`.
* To refer to a note using several names, you can use the [YAML frontmatter key `aliases`](https://publish.obsidian.md/help/How+to/Add+aliases+to+note). For example the note titled "Artificial Intelligence" might have: `aliases: [AI, robot]`
* To find only unlinked mentions, pair it with `--no-linked-by`, e.g. `--mentioned-by file.md --no-linked-by file.md`.
* Declare [named filters](docs/config-filter.md) in the configuration file to reuse [note filtering options](docs/note-filtering.md) used frequently together, for example:
```toml
[filter]
recents = "--sort created- --created-after 'last two weeks'"
* Many tag flavors are supported: `#hashtags`, `:colon:separated:tags:` ([opt-in](docs/note-format.md)) and even Bear's [`#multi-word tags#`](https://blog.bear.app/2017/11/bear-tips-how-to-create-multi-word-tags/) ([opt-in](docs/note-format.md)). If you prefer to use a YAML frontmatter, list your tags with the key `tags` or `keywords`.
* Find every mention of a note in your notebook with `--mention file.md`.
* This will look for occurrences of the note's title in other notes.
* To refer to a note using several names, you can use the [YAML frontmatter key `aliases`](https://publish.obsidian.md/help/How+to/Add+aliases+to+note). For example the note titled "Artificial Intelligence" might have: `aliases: [AI, robot]`
* To find only unlinked mentions, pair it with `--no-link-to`, e.g. `--mention file.md --no-link-to file.md`.
* Print metadata from the [YAML frontmatter](docs/note-frontmatter.md) in `list` output using `{{metadata.<key>}}`, e.g. `{{metadata.description}}`. Keys are normalized to lower case.
