Replace absolute path of images by relative path #2

Closed dirkagterhuis closed 4 years ago

So, I've successfully converted all my Onenote notebooks to markdown, thanks for that! You saved me a tremendous amount of work.

I've moved all notes from the directory I initially put the markdown files to another directory, and noticed that images stopped working because the path referenced is absolute, e.g. 'D:/User/MyNotes/media/...'. I replaced this with the relative path of './media/...' to have them all work again.

I think this can be fixed somewhere around line 181 of the .ps1 file. I attempted a pull request, but I don't know enough of Powershell to replace the part of variable 'fullexportpathwithoutextension' so it just contains './media/.

This would have the script convert Onenote to markdown and lets you then move the notes around as you please!

Hi Dirk, thanks for your continued feedback. As pandoc didn’t really work that well with relative paths I decided to keep the full target path leading throughout the script. What you do after script execution is all up to the user. Therefore I will not be making your suggested alteration here, but you are free to fork the project, of course.
