#!/usr/bin/env ruby
# create Jekyll drafts and publish them (to `_posts/`)
#############
### USAGE ###
#############
#
# ### 1 - start a new draft ###
# $ ./draft.rb name of new post # -> opens `_drafts/name-of-new-post.md` in vim
#
# ### 2 - list all drafts ###
# $ ./draft.rb
# (1) _drafts/hello-world.md
# (2) _drafts/foo-bar.md
# (3) _drafts/asdf.md
#
# ### 3 - publish a draft to `_posts/` ###
# $ date +"%Y-%m-%d"
# 2016-06-20
# $ ./draft.rb 2 # -> moves `_draft/foo-bar.md` to `_posts/2016-06-20-foo-bar.md`
