File -> Fabrication Outputs -> NC Drill Files
It's going to generate a CAM file, out of which you need to export the drill gerber. The process is the same as for the other gerbers after that. The final result is a .txt file.
<fellbuendel> it's arduino, you're not supposed to know anything about what you're doing
<fellbuendel> if you knew, you wouldn't be using it
