Host Michael Becker

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.

What’s New In Tinderbox 10

Explode and .eachLine() stream parsing

NOTE: a sample question file is attached (Becker made some refinements to the action code following the meetup).
