Synching and export

andymatuschak/Bear-Markdown-Export: Markdown export from Bear sqlite database

Bear’s database is located in

$HOME/Library/Group Containers/9K33E3U3T4.net.shinyfrog.bear/Application Data/database.sqlite

Images are in

open "$HOME/Library/Group Containers/9K33E3U3T4.net.shinyfrog.bear/Application Data/Local Files/Note Images"

List last three images:

find "$HOME/Library/Group Containers/9K33E3U3T4.net.shinyfrog.bear/Application Data/Local Files/Note Images" -exec ls -ltr {} + | TAIL -3

Bear does have an export option available, but it just exports a flat file.
