In case it helps anyone else, I’ve attached an Alfred related workflow. It will take what text you’ve highlighted (say, in MailMate) and create a markdown link with the last http item in your Alfred cut/paste buffer. So, it will replace the highlighted text with [highlighted text](last_http_address_in_the_buffer). It is called with the phrase “mdlink”
This is based on a workflow that I found somewhere. Apologies to whoever originally created it, they deserve credit, but I don’t know who they are.

I copy the link and use ⌘K on MailMate for that after copying the link in a browser, no pasting.Respectfully, Henry Seiden - - Techworks Pro Co.

That does it, but ‘regular’ cut and paste does not.Thanks.

There is pasting a text string that begins with “http://“. For me, this indeed turns in to a full-fledged link automatically. I think this is the sort of thing that Sam is talking about.2. There is pasting a text string that doesn’t start with “http://“, but that is a hyperlink. (Like this). Cutting and pasting this sort of thing doesn’t yield a hyperlink for me, it just yields the text “Like this”).The second one is what I’m curious about. Right now, I think I do something like Zak, which is to construct the appropriate markdown-formatted link. (I have an Alfred workflow that makes it very easy, I just wondered if there are other ideas out there. Happy to share the workflow w/ anyone interested).Zvi_______________________________________________ mailmate mailing list [email protected] https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate_______________________________________________ mailmate mailing list [email protected] https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
