Add command line arguments to get information about the app.

Sometimes the user need to have information about the the app as the current version of the app, where the note.db is stored, how many note store or in trash ...

Using the command line can help to get these information without needing to open the app.

In version 2.0.0 we will show the amount of notes users have. We also already have a way for people to check their version of installed Notes through the "check for updates" menu. Where the notes.db is stored is indeed important, we may think about that. All in all, I prefer to do things only in the GUI.

What do you mean getting information through the command line? Could you describe instructions on how someone will do it? Also, are there any current popular applications that do such thing?

example : google-chrome --> in terminal type google-chrome -h and you'll have how to use chrome from terminal

just ideas

notes -v   --> give the current version
notes --count
notes --trash-count
notes --list-notes
...

Oh ok. It won't affect the UX in any way so that's not a problem. And it might be a good thing for power users so that's good.
