Thank you.

Background: I have several hundred gdocs that I want to convert to
markdown. I will then clean up the documents in markdown and convert from
md to HTML.

What I have been trying to **avoid** is having to open all of the gdocs one
by one and then have to save them as a docx one by one. I am trying to get
from gdoc -> markdown  as easily as possible

THX!
