Feature Request: Share Button

Open Bip901 opened this issue 2 months ago • 2 comments

I manage markdown lists, and often share them with people who don't have any markdown editor installed, as plain text over Instant Messaging apps (WhatsApp, Telegram)...

I currently do this by long-pressing the text, clicking "Select All", then "Copy", then "Paste" in the target app. Not a very convenient process.

I'd love a "Share" button that shares the markdown as plain text, similar to the one in this project: https://github.com/wbrawner/SimpleMarkdown

(Intent.ACTION_SEND with EXTRA_TEXT)

@Bip901 Would share as .md file make more sense or is this request specifically meant just to share as plain text? Because sharing .md syntax would look bad imo

While I agree that sharing as .md is more correct, the issue is that the recipients have no app that can open it (think sharing with non-technical people), therefore, they can't view it.

Maybe a "Share as..." button that opens a dialog asking how to share? E.g. "plain text" / "markdown" / "pdf"
