In this Tinderbox lesson, I show you how to copy or export your notes written in markdown out of Tinderbox. I briefly explain how you can write different templates to have Tinderbox render HTML vs. plain text. I then show how to use the export tab; you can copy your markdown out of Tinderbox or use the Export Selected Note (under the file menu) to export your markdown note. In addition, I explain how you can use a prototype to distinguish your markdown notes from other notes and instruct Tinderbox to use a .md rather than a .html extension when exporting from Tinderbox.
