About blob

blob is a minimal notes manager, purely written in C. It supports many features out of the box, and even has addons support for adding features that were not included in the core.

Release info New Release on Oct 03, 2026
Release notes Release Notes v1.5.0
Disaster Girl meme: a house burns in the background labelled "blob needs fixes" while a smiling girl in front is labelled "me adding new features"
This release adds 21 reworked themes with 24-bit colour, a settings panel, redesigns the note list and plugin manager so the selected note is obvious and the screen is mostly notes, fixes screens leaving leftover text behind, makes Esc cancel text prompts, removes the main-list permanent delete key, and makes editor failures visible instead of silently returning to the list.
Added
Settings panel
- Added a settings panel -- open it with ,, :settings / :config, or , inside the plugin manager. Five sections that Tab / Shift+Tab switch between, with an underline under the active one. ?/? (or k/j) move, (or h/l) cycle a value, Enter / Space toggles or edits text, Esc closes. Each setting shows a one-line explanation underneath. Changes are saved to the config file immediately and most apply live (theme, colours, sort, dates, notes per page).
- general: editor, theme (with each theme's description and its position, e.g. 5/21), sort by, reverse order, reopen last note.
- display: notes per page, dates (relative or absolute), colours (auto, 24-bit or 256), hint bar.
- notes: ask before trashing, open new notes in the editor, empty trash after (never, 7, 14, 30, 60, 90 or 180 days).
- plugins: plugin system on/off, find plugins on (local only, ask before GitHub, or always GitHub), ask before running, ask before installing, include ./addons, GitHub repo, GitHub branch.
- keys: open the keybinding editor, reset every core key to its default.
- Added new config keys, all optional and all editable from the panel:
----------------------+--------------------+---------------

restore_session |true / false |true
