Feature request: export from outline, and/or nested inclusions

[anthrolisp]

Is it possible be able to export a document from a nested markdown outline of inclusions ![[page(n)]] so that it removes the indentations before exporting? That way I can order different pages as sections of a single manuscript for compilation?

• [[page_1]]
  • [[page_4]]
• [[page_5]]
  • [[page_2]]
    • [[page_3]]
      • [[page_8]]
  • [[page_7]]
• [[page_6]]

And/Or

Be able to include in an export an inclusion on a page that I am including. For example in a page I exporting [[page_1]], include "![[page_2]]" where that page include another "![[page_3]]

The first option would allow for compilation of document organized with the outliner plugin, creating functionality like Scrivener!

Thank you in advance!

That's a cool feature idea!

Currently one workaround is:

• Open the markdown file in a code editor like VSCode
• Put the cursor at the start of the first line
• Use Alt+Shift+Down (in VSCode on Linux at least) to put a cursor at the start of every line
• Use Ctrl+Shift+Right to select everything up to the - bullets
• Press backspace, delete the space to the right, and type ! to add one to every line

Here's a screen recording:

However, I realise this is a hassle if you don't use an editor much / want to restructure again after exporting. I'll strongly consider adding this feature in the next few months (but stuff like citations takes priority for now).
