Description

It'd be nice to have an option to immediately re-export without having to reselect the file and confirming in the dialog again. It'd be a nice workflow improvement to write -> hotkey -> html or pdf file is immediately updated on disk.

I'll be sending a pull request with this soon as well

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the existing export command and its settings flow; done means a hotkey and menu item re-export the previous output immediately to HTML or PDF without reopening the dialog.
