Add a convenience script I've been using for many years #42

Hi Joost,

I've been using this for many years, and while trivial, someone else might appreciate it. It lowers the barrier to entry, because no configuration of ~/.emacs.el is necessary to have a good writeroom experience. Alternatively, it allows starting emacs with alternative settings to those in ~/.emacs.el, without needing to define a custom function to call.

Limitations:

  1. A user still needs to know about C-x C-s or C-x C-c to save his/her work.
  2. I haven't looked into if it's possible to make this work with emacsclient
  3. There might be a better method of naming/organising files without having to think about a title, but I generally rely on full text search to find something in $notebook.

Please squash my fixup if you merge.

Cheers, Nicholas
