Feature request: export to fdx #103

Hi, I've just discovered the package, and I already love it! Something would really make my live easier, and it's the possibility to export to .fdx. There are a bunch of command-line tools for that, but if it would be directly integrated, it would be so much more convenient... Thanks for considering it! P.

Thanks for the suggestion. Can you provide links to some of the command-line tools? Depending on their license and size, we might be able to include them in the package itself. Otherwise, we'd likely let the user enter a path to their installation of the tool and Atom commands to trigger it.

Hi, There are two packages that I'm aware of:

Screenplain, works quite well in my experience. Python, MIT licence so can be included. https://github.com/vilcans/screenplain
Textplay. I haven't tried it, seems less complete. https://github.com/olivertaylor/Textplay Thanks so much for considering it! Best, Pierre.
