fwiw, what i do is export to a buffer, then write to a file whose name
is derived from the header.
(alpha-make-valid-path
(with-current-buffer org-buffer
(org-get-heading 'no-tags 'no-todo)))
(defun alpha-make-valid-path (s)
"Make a string into a filesystem path."
;; see files.el for this and tramp
(subst-char-in-string ?/ ?!
(replace-regexp-in-string "!" "!!" s)))
i think it might have some issues with long headers and some basename
limit on linux. you seem to truncate for that.
