Feature Request: Wikilinks support

Open aboy021 opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

Many markdown tools such as Obsidian support links using the wikilinks format. For example, the wikilink [[I am a link]] Corresponds to [I am a link](I%20am%20a%20link.md) Unlike regular markdown links, wikilinks support unescaped whitespace.

It would be great if these links could be supported, possibly as a configuration option for GitHub Flavoured Markdown.

BTW: note that wikilink is a non-standard mess. Pandoc will likely be able to support it soon, but will require two extensions to cover [[label|link]] and [[link|label]].

Hello,

let me add that I'd like to use SublimeText(4) as application for Zettelkasten method of note-taking and would like to see features present in Notedown package available in the default package for Markdown editing since Notedown does not show much lie in recent years.

Of course, it is always possible to use ST4 as the editor for taking notes, but with, probably not too much it could become a viable alternative for ZK.

I've tried Obsidian, Zettler, Emacs/org-mode/org-roam, vimwiki... but SublimeText provides the right balance between performance and time one does require configuring one's editor. :smile:

Is this possible now then? I would ❤️ this!!

I've not used it but the documentation says so; this issue can be closed.

Extension: wikilinks_title_after_pipe±

Pandoc supports multiple Markdown wikilink syntaxes, regardless of whether the title is before or after the pipe.

Using --from=markdown+wikilinks_title_after_pipe results in

[[URL|title]]

while using --from=markdown+wikilinks_title_before_pipe results in

[[title|URL]]
