 All the journal entries are located in /datastore/store, and they are
 compressed files. There needs to be a way to export these files into
 another directory as uncompressed files. Right now, the work around for
 this is to drag the files onto a usb stick in the journal, and then the
 files are accessible in non-compressed form on the usb stick. This means
 that we already have the means to do this to a usb stick. We just need to
 make it possible to do this in sugar. Maybe just an extra icon next to the
 journal and usb stick icons (in the journal), which is a folder that will
 hold uncompressed files will do the trick. Then, when entries are dragged
 from the journal to this new icon, the same steps are taken as with moving
 to a usb stick, except that the files go to a directory somewhere in
 /home/olpc.
