feature request: repurpose to also use this for markdown reference links

Open kaushikgopal opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Thank you for the good work on this plugin. I was curious if you could add the feature (or repurpose into a new plugin) where we're also able to use this workflow for inserting markdown "reference" links.

I find that this lands up obstructing in the "readability" of the markdown document: for example

I use a few search engines: [Google](https://google.com), [duckduckgo](https://duckduckgo.com/) and [bing](https://bingcom/)

is harder to read than this:

I use a few search engines: [Google][g], [duckduckgo][d] and [bing][b]

[g](https://google.com)
[d](https://duckduckgo.com/)
[b](https://bingcom/)

This gets particularly gnarly when you have longer document links. Would it be possible to achieve something similar so that the reference link is auto inserted at the bottom?

Much thanks again for this.

There is a plug-in called Footlinks that may help you.
