Would like to link the header directly from GistPad rather than searching for the link on the gist in GitHub

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. No

Describe the solution you'd like The header: "## Header Would Like to Link to" You can right click on this header and click 'get URL to Gist header', then with this URL in your clipboard you can do whatever you like with it.

Describe alternatives you've considered A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered. There could be a bar on the right which will have all of the headers and then you can click on them for the URL rather than directly right clicking on it within the gistpad.

Additional context This would be great as it would save lots of time when working on projects with the documenting code as when you are writing your work notes you can directly link to the verbose part which you are writing on your own work log.

I just shipped a web version of GistPad (https://gistpad.dev) that's specifically for markdown editing, and can act as a companion to the VS Code extension. So I may look into letting you link to a specific heading in https://gistpad.dev, since I'm trying to optimize that UX for sharing/mobile/etc.

I'm gonna close this as "resolved" for now, per my previous comment. The VS Code extension now allows opening a markdown file in GistPad.dev, and from there you can grab a deep link to a specific heading (by clicking on the heading).
