Markdown Refactor

Overview

Markdown Refactor is a VS Code extension for small Markdown editing refactors:

• Extract selected Markdown into a new linked file.
• Add spaces between CJK/full-width text and English words.
• Convert punctuation between half-width and full-width forms.

Repository: zedware/vscode-markdown-refactor

Usage

Open a Markdown file and run:

Markdown: Refactor...

Default shortcut:

Ctrl+Alt+M

Available actions:

1. Extract selection to a single Markdown file
2. Space CJK and English words
3. Space CJK and English words with punctuation
4. Convert punctuation to full width
5. Convert punctuation to half width

Spacing and punctuation actions work on the current selection. If nothing is selected, they apply to the whole Markdown document. Punctuation conversion asks for confirmation before changing the whole document and preserves leading Markdown syntax such as headings and list markers.

Settings:

• markdownRefactor.linkStyle: markdown, embed, or wiki
• markdownRefactor.defaultDirectory: optional extraction directory relative to the current file
