Recently I've started using [Notion app](https://www.notion.so) for note
taking. There came times when I wanted to write about a specific directory,
but then came the problem of how to link the dic to notion page. How about a
tiny bash script? OSX's built in open command is capable of opening links so
I copied the link from notion and put in a `docs.sh` script. Boom! It opens
the notion page but in the browser not the app 😟.
After some digging I found this
[repo](https://github.com/creold/open-in-notion/) for a chrome extension that
opens notion links in the app. Taking a look at the source code it simply
adds a `/native` in the url to open in the app. Updated my script and now it
works 😀.
```bash
#!/usr/bin/env bash
open https://www.notion.so/native/Custom-Brew-Tap-e6f4faef5130442f94c9b06575806fc0
exit 0
```
If I continue to do this perhaps I'll write a small tool to create the script files for me.
