SimpleBugs
SimpleBugs is the world's easiest to use bug tracking software. With SimpleBugs you can create a bug database for each of your projects or have one database for each projects. You can even add comments to your bugs! All this and more simple done from the command line.
How does SimpleBugs work?
SimpleBugs is a command line utility. It creates and maintains a database (.splat file) that holds a bug list together with comments attached to each of those bugs.
When you run SimpleBugs it looks for a database in the local directory (the directory in which the command is run) and ALL parent directories.

- Make a bug database.
