Terminal command to split a list of markdown items into separate documents. Given a "slug" value, the file will be named that. You could also change slug to title and create slugs/filenames from the title. You may also want to run your output through a markdown converter, like https://github.com/domchristie/to-markdown
csplit -k -n 3 export.txt '/^@@@/' {'999'}; for i in xx*; do sed -i '' 's/@@@/---/g' $i; done; for i in xx*; do mv $i `egrep -m1 -e 'slug:.*' $i | sed -e s/[^\]\[A-Za-z0-9~.,_{}\(\)\'\-\+]/-/g -e s/slug--//`.md; done
