Looking in the documentation it seems that the format in the month text file only allows for one entry per day as the day date is used as an index.
Would it be feasible to allow more than one entry per day without having to create a separate journal?
If you manually put a second text: entry under the same date only the second one is shown.
If you manually put a suffix letter after the date then it complains that it is not an integer

What exactly do you define as an entry? What does an entry look like to you? I count an entry as any thought from a particular time, and put them all in the same day in chronological order, in case that helps. Like so:
11:13:54PM
I'm feeling good about tonight.

11:31:20PM
Knew it. Things are going great.

I suppose on a given day I might make one entry titled "Party this evening" and another called "Gardening things" as separate diary entries for the same day.
In the same way as you might make two blog entries on the same day but dealing with different subjects.
You want to keep them separate but in the same blog/diary/journal.

An entry is a chunk attached to a day with a title and a description, covering one or more topics. You might put everything in the same entry, or you might separate them into different entries which can be listed and tagged separately

Thanks for elaborating! Using multiple === titles === helps somewhat, but I agree that the search and the tagging can be improved for that use case.
