Cute Paste works in Markdown mode
Good morning. Still thinking about which of the items on my list I'll deal with today, but first I have to remaining problems with the stuff I made yesterday.
I implemented the cute paste feature in Markdown view in the editor.
When you paste a url into a selection, the text you selected becomes a link to that url.
Since it's in Markdown you get the link in Markdown form.
Posted a video demo on Scripting News.
When you paste a url into a selection, the text you selected becomes a link to that url.
“Cute paste” is a nice name for this feature @davew! It’s a much better name than “Paste a URL over text to make a link”.
Over the years, I’ve become so used to this feature in WordPress / Slack / GitHub / Notion, that it’s really frustrating when it’s missing from an editor. At least once a week I make the mistake in Google Docs for example. I’m glad to see it appear in WordLand.
