In this Tinderbox meetup, we reviewed the new features introduced in Tinderbox 10. We also explored a project Michael Becker is working on, i.e., importing questions in an MS Word document to Tinderbox. We explored using Explode for the operation, which did not scale. We then turned to each line stream parsing and wrote the action code to parse the questions using the .eachline() operator. Becker also demonstrated how he uses Obsidian to convert MS Word formatting to markdown before pasting the text into Tinderbox.
