Dynamic demo: https://t.co/VpaamXdh1B

While OurBigBook Web topic mind melding remains the most innovative feature of the project, local plaintext is a fundamental guarantee that you will never lose your content, and we intend to keep it awesome.

[OurBigBook.com @OurBigBook]

https://t.co/SPUb6l9mba OurBigBook CLI now forces you to write a consistent tree of headers by default, including e.g.:

[OurBigBook.com @OurBigBook]

- rename README.bigb to index.bigb. Much cleaner, and we already have a conflict on the baseneme index.html, so why create another conflict with README
- rename out to _out which is a reserved ID. Otherwise it was impossible to have a directory called out with ourbigbook files
