title: imag - The commandline text personal information management suite
---

> Create a fast, reliable, forwards/backwards compatible commandline personal
> information management suite which covers all aspects of personal information
> management, consists of reusable parts and integrates well with known
> commandline tools.

That's our mission, that's our goal. And we develop **open source** under the
terms of **LGPLv2.1**.

---

imag is a toolset for personal information management on the terminal. It uses
plain text formats only and it aims to cover all aspects of personal information
management.

**imag is under active development and has reached a semi-useable state.
Experimening welcome!**

We want to implement the following "modules" of personal information management:
bibliography management,
calendar,
contact management,
diary,
images,
ledger,
mail,
movies,
music,
news (rss),
notes,
passwords,
personal project management,
personal wiki,
podcast management
and many more.

What becomes special with imag is the fact that one can _link_ all the data
these tools create, tag, categorize, sort and query them from a single program
and in an uniform way.

---

There are several libraries being developed alongside imag itself, for
example "filters", "toml-query" and "kairos".
They can be found in the [git viewer as well](http://git.imag-pim.org)!
