Extension summary

Markdown Copier is a Chrome extension designed to help you copy selected text and page URLs in markdown format for use with note-taking and knowledge management apps like Obsidian and Logseq.

Key Features

Two Modes of Operation: The extension has two modes: Text is selected: Copies the selected text and the page URL in markdown format; No text selected: Copies only the page URL in markdown format.

Current Tab Only: The extension works exclusively for the current tab, ensuring that you have control over the content you want to copy.

Customisable Output Format: Tailor the output format to your preferences. The default format is "> [selected text] | [src]([current page URL])", but you can modify it to suit your needs.

Keyboard Shortcut Support: Assign a custom keyboard shortcut to activate the extension without clicking the icon. To set up a shortcut, visit chrome://extensions/shortcuts in your browser and configure a key combination. 'Cmd + M' is a suggested one.

Seamless Integration with Obsidian and Logseq: Effortlessly copy and paste markdown-formatted links into Obsidian and Logseq, enhancing your research and note-taking experience.

Very useful tool for Obsidian, I love how simply it adds the source to my notes!

Very convenient to copy with a link to the site. Would be even more convenient if you add copying by keyboard shortcut. alt+c or something.
