derickfay / Export All Skim Notes with Markdown Reference Links to Clipboard

Avoids editor-specific dependency by copying notes to the clipboard rather than adding to a file.

	(* EXPORT ALL SKIM NOTES TO THE CLIPBOARD WITH MARKDOWN REFERENCE LINKS

	-- adapted to use the clipboard by Derick Fay 29 Aug 2013

	This script will (as the title suggests) export all of you Skim notes to the clipboard in Markdown format, with reference style links. It relies on the GENERATE TOP 3 NOTES WITH SYSTEM URL script that will put 3 notes at the top of the PDF with linking information.
	When launched, the script will ask you if the current PDF is a Primary Source or a Secondary Source. Your choice will determine the text values for the 6 different highlight colors. Of course, you can change any and/or all of the text values to what you wish.
