Where does Parchment save the transcript?

Yes, it can only export files from the localStorage of iplayif.com. It can’t access other instances of Parchment, though you could copy the files to any other domain. Though note that it only works for recent versions of Parchment that use base32768 encoding.

Some minor changes to the exporter: it will set the modified dates of the files, and it actually compresses (rather than just using the ‘store’ method of zip.)

I also changed which Zip library I’m using, and the compiled script is now only 14kb! Pretty wild that for a format as quirky as Zip, a pure-JS compressor library only needs about 8kb. If anyone else ever needs to make a zip in JS, check out fflate!
