------------------------------
manages collection inventories

SYNOPSIS
========
lesana [--help] <command>
DESCRIPTION
===========
lesana is a tool to organize collections of various kinds. It is
designed to have a data storage / serialization format that is friendly
to git and other VCSs, but decent performances.
To reach this aim it uses yaml_ as its serialization format, which is
easy to store in a VCS, share between people and syncronize between
different computers, but it also keeps an index of this data in a local
xapian_ database in order to allow for fast searches.
.. _yaml: http://yaml.org/
.. _xapian: https://xapian.org/
lesana supports collections of any kind, as long as their entries can be
described with a mostly flat dictionary of fields of the types described
in the documentation file ``field_types``.
Some example collection schemas are provided, but one big strenght of
lesana is the ability to customize your collection with custom fields
either by simply writing a personalized ``settings.yaml``.
OPTIONS

-h, --help
Prints an help message and exits.

TEXT EDITOR
===========
Many lesana subcommands will try to open files in a text editor choosen

* then the command ``sensible-editor``, as available under e.g. Debian
and its derivatives
* lastly, it will try to fallback to ``vi``, which should be available
under any posix system.
