 | ‑‑mask             | unix shell-style wildcards to select the files | You can tell *gnsync* what filetypes to sync. By default *gnsync* tries to open every file in the directory. But you can set the mask like: &#042;.txt, &#042;.log, &#042;.md, &#042;.markdown. |
 | ‑‑format           | in what format to save the note - plain or markdown | Set the engine which to use while files uploading. *gnsync* supports markdown and plain text formats. By default it uses plain text engine. |
-| ‑‑notebook         | notebook where to save | You can set the notebook which will be syncronized with local directory. But if you won't set this option, *gnsync* will create new notebook with the name of the directory that you want to sync. |
