        ### Introduction
        
        `buku` is a powerful bookmark manager written in Python3 and SQLite3. When I started writing it, I couldn't find a flexible cmdline solution with a private, portable, merge-able database along with browser integration. Hence, `Buku` (after my son's nickname, meaning *close to the heart* in my language).
        
        `buku` fetches the title of a bookmarked web page and stores it along with any additional comments and tags. You can use your favourite editor to compose and update bookmarks. With multiple search options, including regex and a deep scan mode (particularly for URLs), it can find any bookmark instantly. Multiple search results can be opened in the browser at once.
        
        For GUI integration (or to sync bookmarks with your favourite bookmark management service), refer to the wiki page on [System integration](https://github.com/jarun/Buku/wiki/System-integration). If you prefer the terminal, thanks to the [shell completion](#shell-completion) scripts, you don't need to memorize any of the options. There's an Easter egg to revisit random forgotten bookmarks too.
        
        We have one of the best documentation around. You can start with the [Examples](#examples). *Buku* is too busy to track you - no hidden history, obsolete records, usage analytics or homing. To learn more on how it works or to contribute to the project, please refer to the wiki page on [Operational notes](https://github.com/jarun/Buku/wiki/Operational-notes).
        
        There are several [projects](#related-projects) based on `buku`, including a browser plug-in.

        #### Colors
        
        `buku` supports custom colors. Visit the wiki page on how to [customize colors](https://github.com/jarun/Buku/wiki/Customize-colors) for more details.
        
        ### Examples
        
        1. **Edit and add** a bookmark from editor:
        
                $ buku -w
                $ buku -w 'macvim -f' -a https://ddg.gg search engine, privacy
            The first command picks editor from the environment variable `EDITOR`. The second command will open macvim with option -f and the URL and tags populated in template.
        2. **Add** a bookmark with **tags** `search engine` and `privacy`, **comment** `Search engine with perks`, **fetch page title** from the web:
        
                $ buku -a https://ddg.gg search engine, privacy -c Search engine with perks
                336. DuckDuckGo
                > https://ddg.gg
                + Alternative search engine with perks
                # privacy,search engine
            where, >: url, +: comment, #: tags
        3. **Add** a bookmark with tags `search engine` & `privacy` and **immutable custom title** `DDG`:
        
                $ buku -a https://ddg.gg search engine, privacy --title 'DDG' --immutable 1
                336. DDG (L)
                > https://ddg.gg
                # privacy,search engine
            Note that URL must precede tags.
        4. **Add** a bookmark **without a title** (works for update too):
        
                $ buku -a https://ddg.gg search engine, privacy --title
        5. **Edit and update** a bookmark from editor:
        
                $ buku -w 15012014
            This will open the existing bookmark's details in the editor for modifications. Environment variable `EDITOR` must be set.
        6. **Update** existing bookmark at index 15012014 with new URL, tags and comments, fetch title from the web:
        
                $ buku -u 15012014 --url http://ddg.gg/ --tag web search, utilities -c Private search engine
        7. **Fetch and update only title** for bookmark at 15012014:
        
                $ buku -u 15012014
