 ### Usage Tutorial

 By default, *zero* code blocks are tangled. You must provide where you'd like to tangle each code
 block manually (global configuration will be discussed later). To do so, add a `#tangle
 <output-file>` tag above the code block you'd wish to export, where <output-file> is relative to the

 #### Global Tangling for Single Files
 Apart from tangling a single or a set of code blocks, you can declare a global output file in the document's metadata:

 The above snippet tells the Neorg tangling engine to tangle all `lua` code blocks to `./init.lua` and all `haskell` code blocks to `./output.hs`.
 As always if any of the code blocks have a `#tangle` tag then that takes precedence.
 
+If you want to be more verbose, or you're tangling to a file without an extension (perhaps you're
+writing a shell script that has a shebang) you can also do this:

 #### Ignoring Code Blocks
 Sometimes when tangling you may want to omit some code blocks. For this you may use the `#tangle.none` tag:
