Low priority of course, can be easily done in an editor after export. And don't even know where to put it UI-wise in the program...

Yes. There's plenty of other options too, like should PETSCII .c export save multiple screens or just the currently selected one.

I would've done some of this already if I had a good clean UI layout in mind for this.

When the user clicks on export (from menus or if there was a button), should the UI popup a modal on top of the editor with options for that particular export type? Or should it navigate the UI to a different route with the export options? The export dialog potentially needs also a thumnail list of screens so that the user can select which screens to export, in case he wants more than one.

The same applies to import too. For example, the .c format can contain multiple frames. I'd like it to be possible to choose ones ones to bring in and whether.

Maybe I'll go with a modal first. I consider this pretty important for the next releases because a bunch of things are being held back behind the lack of this UI component.

@Viza74 Here's a screencap of how I'm planning to do these settings: https://youtu.be/Q66c2vFPn6w
