Feel free to use one line script for splitting one big markdown file into many files based on chapter). It works on MAC OS, WINDOWS, LINUX. I think this script can save a lot of time for all of us. Enjoy.

See the mini tutorial in the Github > here

Thanks for sharing, could be helpful! Does it keep the original file or replace it?

Hey thanks! I hope this functionality gets into Obsidian one day!

How do I alter the script to make the splits on H2 instead of H1?

@alltagsverstand:

It will keep the original file.

@AlexanderSavenkov:

Just change part '/^# / to:

  • for Heading 1: '/^# /
  • for Heading 2: '/^## /
  • for Heading 3: '/^### /
  • for Heading 4: '/^#### /

Don’t withdraw the post, why?

Because I got suggestion from web, that better practice is when I reply to both user as one reply. So I merged them in one, and deleted previous. Not knowing that it will stay there for 24 hours :smiley:
