| This introduces a CLI command `yt` which calls `youtube-viewer` | |
| to display a YouTube channel. The YouTube channel IDs are stored | |
| in `~/.config/youtube/` in flat plain text files containing just | |
| the ID. The file name is used as the argument to `yt`. | |
| One way to find out the channel IDs is to paste a URL of a | |
| YouTube video into the `youtube-viewer` prompt. It will | |
| then list the channel ID in the videos metadata. |
