* number of documents to return
 
* file to output documents to (defaults to standard out)
queryNotes.js should be called as follows:
 
  node queryNotes.js [--output=<output file>] [--maxcount=<max number of documents to return>]  <query>
 
Note the query is mandatory.  The output file should default to standard out, and the if no maxcount is specified then all matching documents should be returned.
 
The query should be a single string that follows one of two formats:
 
* query as a query object
* query as a query object
* query by specific fields (title, author, substring in contents)
* query by specific fields (title, author, substring in contents)
