 * I’m trying to download all my posts as a single text file, but I want most of
   the markup in tact.
 * So spaces, and formatting should remain, as should the links if possible. I’m
   sure this can be done, I’ve just forgotten where to look. Any ideas?

 * Erm having a .sql file isn’t what I’m looking for here. You know when you’re 
   importing your posts from MT, you have this text file that’s formatting properly,
   that’s what I’m looking for.
