Soloterm
A downloadable tool for Windows, macOS, and Linux
What Is It?
Soloterm is an application you run in the terminal (mac, windows, linux) to log your solo TTRPG sessions. Being a terminal based app, it has fast keyboard navigation.
You own the data. It's all right on your computer. No internet required. No account required.
What Can It Do?
Track Games
You create a game and track multiple sessions within the game. Games are just a name for adding session logs to. You'll need to add a game before adding logs.
Once you have a game setup, you can start adding session logs.
Log Sessions
Session logging is done via a simple text editor. The editor provides:
- Autosaving changes as you go
- No formatting is displayed, however, you can enter formatting (like markdown)
- Import/Export a session
Lonelog Tags
Lonelog is a syntax for session logging. It's great. Go check it out. I've added Lonelog support to session logging via tags.
- Insert tag templates, then fill out
- Insert a core log (Character Action, Oracle Question, Dice) template, then fill it out
- It tracks "open" tags so when you open the tag modal, the most recent open tag appears for quick entry.
- You can customize the tag templates by editing the config.yaml file created when the application starts. Press F1 to find the config file.
Dice Rolling
There's a flexible dice roller that allows you to quickly enter a standard dice notation (1d6, 2d6kh1, etc.) and get a result. You can enter multiple rolls and get the results in one key press. Once you have the result, you can insert it directly into the log.
Simple Character Sheets
Once you've added a character, you can edit their character sheet to add entries and their values. It's simple by design, but flexible enough to track things that you reference the most.
Where Do I Get It?
The code and application are released under the MIT license. You can access both on Github.
If you find issues, have suggestions for changes, or want to submit a change you've made, please do so through Github.

Any way to use this with termux on android?
I have no idea, sorry.
Just downloaded it. Simply: wow! Holy cow this is exactly what I was looking for. Not long ago, when I read the this Lonelog bookled from Zotiquest (Loner creator) I thought I need just a simple app on my Debian machine to run my solo games. Up to now, I used jrnl terminal note taking app, which it its job, but this one is way way better. I will play around with it more. I need to figure out how F2 Action, F3 Oracle and F4 Dice best work. This app is a piece of art! Thank you very much for providing this to the RPG game audience. Very cool!
Wow, thanks for the kind words! It's great to hear you find it useful. I've installed it on my linux server at home that I can SSH into and play from anywhere.
For Ctrl+T Tags, F2 Action, F3 Oracle, and F4 Dice, check out the Lonelog PDF (it's free) for guidance. I've found it very helpful for tracking things and notating mechanics.
