Boostnote: Open note in external editor

[0vermind]

Hi guys, great work!

I discovered Bootsnote and I think it could be the definitive note taking app!

I think a lot of issues can be closed immediately by using an external code editor instead of edit inside Bootsnote.
Having a button to automatically lunch the editor and passing the current note could be a solution to some requests. We don't need to compete with feature-rich IDE like VisualstudioCode, Atom, Sublime etc.

Personally I'm a heavy Zim users, looking around to move to bootsnote completly.

I do not quite understand your feature request. Can you give an example where opening the note in an external code editor will help?

For example being able to move up & down a line of text through the ALT + arrows key like in VS Code (Very useful if you need to order lists). More about features like this here https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/getstarted/keybindings#_basic-editing.
Suppose I want to write with autocompletion and error-correction in a language not supported by . Boostnote. if I can use an external editor of my choice, the problem is solved :)
There are tons of functionalities like the one above in others editors. I would not invest time in implementing stuff like this but simply use them in combination with Boostnote.

Try to look at the Joplin note for an inspiration they have it.

You can open the .cson files in other editors.
