Lately I've found myself jotting down and formatting notes in Grasshopper then exporting to a text file. (If this is strange to you, I understand completely.) So I've written a quick script making that workflow a bit easier. I know there are other codes out there, but I thought it might be interesting to share nonetheless.

There are some simple built-in safety protocols. It checks for an existing file path first then proceeds with the exporting process. If the specified file contains data the user is prompted with a warning, asking him/her to allow an overwrite or specify a new path.

It also works with CSV files. You will need GHPython.

You're welcome to download it here. Image of it in use below.

Best,

EDIT 05/2016: The above file now includes the latest script with the additional functions (append, relative path, etc.).
