Related to #415 and #491

I think certain search output would be nice if it were more customizable / configurable.

For instance, if I have a convention to make the first line of my note the "title" for a given book, it would be nice to always include the title in my search output.

Other times, I trust my search and would love to be thrown into a PAGER where all note content is appended together (perhaps with some clear markdown delimiters / etc.) so I can continue searching / read full context / etc.

In other cases, I might want to sort by "note create date," "last updated," or other fields that are generally not available in the CLI / UX.

  • What alternatives have you considered?

None really.

  • Any additional context

Current workflow:

  • dnote find sometopic
  • Try to guess based on context clues which note is the one I want
  • dnote view number

Proposed:

  • dnote find sometopic
  • done (depends a bit on user customization)
