Thanks for replying to this request. I am not subscribed to this thread so I did not see your response until now.
1. In my use case, at minimum, I would like to quickly copy the names of ALL my history and bookmark, so that I can search through them and organize them outside of Foxtrot. Additionally, it would also be good to copy the names of only selected bookmark/history items.
2. I don't think it's important that the export format needs to be useful in the sense that it's human-readable. It's fine if the export format is some binary that only Foxtrot could open. What matters is I have a data object that can "re-open" the original search, and I can organize that data object in folder structures outside of Foxtrot. For example, if I have a folder called "Research question X", I would like to store a file called "Saved Search on question X" right inside this folder.
I'm asking for this feature (and I've seen another thread asking the same many years ago), because Foxtrot is not just a search tool during research -- it's also an organizational space where we filter and organize contents on an ad-hoc basis.
