Patch for Plain Text Export

Hi,

I detected, that using org-store-agenda-views to export my views
to *.txt in plain text results in files growing and growing because
the new views are appended.

In my understanding this is not the intended behavior. Every new
export should replace the previous one.

I attached a very simple patch to correct this.


Yours sincerly
Thomas Fuchs
