Converting One Note to Markdown

This is an example of how to convert notes from OneNote into Markdown to use in other, less annoying Note applications. I am using PowerShell on Windows here, but other shell/scripting environments would work as well. If you want separate .md files, you'll need to export your OneNote pages separately. Exporting a section, or a selection of pages creates a single .docx file.

• Download and install Pandoc
• Export each of your note pages to a .docx (Word) format using OneNote export from the File menu
• Gather all of these .docx files into a directory
• Open directory in File Explorer
• Open Powershell from the File Explorer using File -> Open Windows Powersell
• Run the following command:

rwetzeler

# .bashrc file, located in c:\Users\username\

#cmd
alias cd..="cd .."
alias ..="cd .."
alias ...="cd ../.."
alias ....="cd ../../.."
alias dir="ls -al"
alias cls="clear"

This workflow is meant for feature development in a branch.  Branches should be very short lived in this workflow.  Because they are so lightweight in Git, this shouldn't be a problem. 

Only go past step 7 when you are done with that feature and ready to merge it back to the main trunk/master branch.
