Usage

  1. Display The Interface
    • Press Shift, Shift, T (press in sequence, not together as combination)
  2. Click on the "MD" button to copy the markdown content to your clipboard

Features

  • Support both th and td (old vs new table markup)
  • Support colspan

Limitation

  • If the colspan is not exact, this will create improper table size (sometime ppl use large colspan to fill the unknown column size colspan="100" even when there only 7 columns for instance)

Todo

  • Fix the colspan error
  • Add ref link below the table
  • Detect and generate text alignment

Change Logs

  • v1.0.1
    • Fixed where the copy button pickup more than one tables
