Evernote to org-mode

evernote-to-org-mode.org

* Export from evernote
  
  You'll have to open up the evernote application on either Mac or
  Windows (they don't have a linux client), right click on the
  notebook you want to export, and select "Export." Select the option
  to export to html (either one page or several pages, depending on
  your preference. I went with one html page for each note).

* Clean filenames
  
  Remove spaces from filenames:

  #+BEGIN_SRC sh
    for f in *\ *
    do
        mv "$f" "${f// /-}"
    done
  #+END_SRC
  
  Remove & symbols:


  #+BEGIN_SRC sh
    for file in *; do mv "$file" `echo $file | tr '&' 'and'` ; done
  #+END_SRC

* Convert to org

  You'll need to have the excellent =pandoc= utility installed.

  #+BEGIN_SRC sh
    for f in *.html 
    do
        pandoc  ${f} -f html -t org -o ${f}.org  
    done
  #+END_SRC

  Now we rename all the =.html.org= files to just =.org=:

  #+BEGIN_SRC sh
    for file in *.html.org
    do
        mv "$file" "${file%%.html.org}.org"
    done
  #+END_SRC

  To get rid of all the HTML tags:

  #+BEGIN_SRC sh
    perl -i -p0e 's/#\+BEGIN\_HTML.*?#\+END\_HTML/ /sg' *.org
  #+END_SRC

  And finally, remove all the html files:

  #+BEGIN_SRC sh
    rm -f *.html
  #+END_SRC
