```

## Usage

After installation, the thoughtbook must be initialized.
We recommend running `cowponder --update` with root privileges
so that the generated thoughtbook file can be shared;
otherwise, cowponder will use a user-local thoughtbook.

```bash
# displays a thought
ponder

# displays a thought from a cow
cowponder
```

Cowponder can also be imported into python code:
```
>>> from cowponder import cowponder
>>> print(cowponder())
