exporting tags #54

Right now, tags are in the db, but not anywhere else. This makes any export difficult.

I'd like to select a few notes, and export them. Or be able to grep by tag, and use the filesystem for filtering and concatenating or whatever.

The best model here is scrivener. They built their tool knowing that notes eventually will become something larger, be 'published' as a doc.

I'd be happy to have a way to access tabs inside the txt notes :). The rest, unix can do.

Could you be more specific concerning this feature, and especially what your desired goal / use case is exactly?

I have made a version with the export tags function. You can this version here: https://github.com/swestdijk/nvpy/tree/iss54. Enabling this is through the export_tags = 1 in your .nvpy.cfg. Tags are exported as last line like this : Tags: tag,tag . When editting a text note, this will be read in at startup and stripped of, while replacing the tags of the note. Please try and report back.
