SublimeText Plugin

This one might be a stretch of an ask, but I figured it can't hurt to at least put it out there.

There's a SublimeText plugin called MarkdownTOC that seemed pretty cool, but it suffers from some bugs (including one that you fixed in this project: https://github.com/derlin/bitdowntoc/issues/26 / https://github.com/derlin/bitdowntoc/pull/29) that makes it unusable for some of my workflows. Looking at their repo, there hasn't been any activity for ~3 years, so it seems unlikely that any fixes will land:

  • https://packagecontrol.io/packages/MarkdownTOC
  • https://github.com/naokazuterada/MarkdownTOC
    • https://github.com/naokazuterada/MarkdownTOC/pull/170

So I was wondering if maybe bitdowntoc could maybe be wrapped up into a SublimeText plugin.

It seems MarkdownTOC is MIT licensed, so at least in theory that could probably be forked and reworked as a basis if needs be:

  • https://github.com/naokazuterada/MarkdownTOC/blob/master/LICENSE-MIT

SublimeText plugins are Python based, so i'm not sure how hard it would be to integrate bitdowntoc in that regard (without just shelling out to a binary/etc)

Totally understand if this is too out of scope for this project, or would be too much work, but figured I would ask in case :)
