// Write All Keywords to Text File

var lines = []
collect_keywords = function(kwds, prefix) {
	kwds.forEach(function(kw) {
		lines.push(prefix + kw.keyword())
		collect_keywords(kw.children(), prefix + kw.keyword() + " > ")
	})
}
collect_keywords(library.rootNode().keywords(), "")
lines.sort()
var text = ""
for (i in lines) text += lines[i] + "\n"

var path = chooseFile({
	save: true,
	formats: [{
		name: "Text Files",
		patterns: ["*.txt"]
	}]})
if (path != "")
	writeFileUTF8(path, text)
