feature request- export all notes to one big txt file #401

Open bombjoke opened 7 years ago

i want to dump my thousands of notes into my kindle. the only way i can see to do it is to change from storing local in nvalt database, to storing local in individual files, and then cat * > allnotes.txt. and then change the nvalt prefs back from files to database, and hope there's no dupes or funny business with dates attributes.

is there a better way?

First thing first, make a backup of your database. Then you're good since the cat command won't touch your text files. I'm curious though, why you want then in a single file at the end ?
