Dear John,
Thank you thank you! Using your code as I template I managed to write
a function that does what I wanted:
(defun my-exp-headings-to-markdown ()
"Export each top-level heading to markdown."
(interactive)
(org-map-entries
(lambda ()
(let ((level (nth 1 (org-heading-components)))
(title (nth 4 (org-heading-components))))
(if (= level 1)
(org-entry-put (point) "EXPORT_FILE_NAME" title))
(if (= level 1)
(org-md-export-to-markdown nil 1 nil))))
nil nil))
Note that I had to remove the ":" from the second argument to
"org-entry-put" to get it working properly on my system. Not sure if
that was a bug in your original example or not.
Best,
Ista
