This script creates a new note based on one or more template note files.

Templates are just note files stored in a notebook named “Templates.” A new note will be identical to the original template file, including any tags, complex formatting, attachments, links, images, and so forth.

You may optionally include any of the following variables and have them swapped out into the new note. These variables are especially useful to ensure new notes can be easily distinguished from their template files.

%date% will be replaced with the short, numeric-only date (e.g. 12/31/2013)

%datetime% will be replaced with a long format date and time (e.g. October 1, 2012 4:36:53 PM)

%input% if present, you will be prompted to enter in text to replace this variable everywhere it occurs
