FR: Add a ! in front of note links

Open profucius opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

HI there, great plugin. I have an idea for a feature which would add some extra power to your plugin. I could use this feature quite a bit.

I propose that you add a setting to your plugin, which adds a ! symbol to the front of the [[Note]] link that it currently does. By adding the !, it turns it into a dynamic embed of that file.

This feature would allow the user to generate a glossary of the current directory, peering into the contents of each file. This could be very useful for directories with smaller/quick notes (i.e. a slipbox).

There is already a plugin that technically does this (called Auto Glossary) however it does not automatically generate the content live, so the user must regenerate the page manually. By adding this feature to your plugin, and it being dynamically generated and updated, it solves all of my needs.

Ideally this would be triggered as a command, although I see your current methodology is to use the %% commenting, so at the least this feature could be added as a setting. If you do transition to using commands, this would be good for that.

Thanks
