Tool to convert Evernote export files into orgmode.

What does it do?

It converts your Evernote export file into an orgmode file and also extracts out your attachments, saving them as orgmode attachments. (Use C-c C-a to see your attachments.)

Notes that were created with a source URL (e.g., created using the web clipper) are presumed to have relatively complicated formatting and so are saved as html files (with links in the org file).

Notes without a source URL are presumed to have been written manually and so are converted into orgmode formatting.

Tables are halfway implemented: assuming your table is not too complicated, the output will contain something looking like

|-
| 1 | 2
| 3 | 4
|-

Opening the file in Emacs, positioning your cursor in the table, and pressing tab should be enough to have orgmode finish the formatting.

Use --separate sometag to output notes tagged sometag into their own file.

What does it not do (yet)?

• encryption
• links to other Evernote notes

How do you run it?
