title: How can I edit Jupyter/IPython notebooks as text files?
body: <p>I would like to use Jupyter/IPython notebooks for writing reports, but I would prefer to avoid the browser interface.  Instead, I would like to be able to write the notebook in some text-based format, e.g. markdown, and export the notebook afterwards.  Essentially I would like to use Jupyter in a Knitr-esque workflow.  Is this currently possible?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
