Strip Internal Links

This is a simple plugin to strip internal links from files and copies the result to the clipboard. That's it.

Why though?

I often find myself wanting to send the contents of a file to someone. Maybe some notes that I've made during a meeting, or just something I quickly jotted down. I can't just send them my markdown with all my internal links, as those don't make sense to them. So, I have to manually strip them out. This simple plugin takes care of that.

How do I use this?

In an editor, open the command palette and find the Strip Internal Links: Entire file, or Strip Internal Links: Selection. Each of these has two versions, in-place which will swap the content selected (or the entire file), or to clipboard which will copy the result into the clipboard.

External links are preserved.
