configuration

by default the configuration is looked up in .config/lst
the file contains a JSON object with the configuration of the program with the following subojects:

lists

the lists object contains as keys the names of the lists that you want to configure and as values the configuration for those lists, for example:
if the path to a list doesn't exists it's created:
{
    "lists": {
        "links": {
            "format": "src/me/links/%Y/%m.links" // strftime format can be used
        }
    }
}

fields

format
is the path to the list, you can use ~ to refer to the user's home and any format from datetime.strftime
