Features

When writing Japanese notes in markdown, it is too inconvenient that we need to switch the input language frequently. That is because markdown syntax can not support the necessary characters like # in full-width characters "#". (Yes, they are different symbols.)

This extension converts the markdown syntax-related characters from full-width to half-width, to reduce the switch of the input language. When the cursor moves to another line, the conversion will be applied to the previous line.

Demo

Extension Settings

This extension contributes the following settings:

  • markdownJpToEn.enable: Enable/disable this extension.
  • markdownJpToEn.replacements: To customize the convention rules.

Release Notes

Users appreciate release notes as you update your extension.

0.0.1

Initial release.

0.0.2

The "ー" character is used in Japanese so I delete this rule in the default setting. I plan to update the conversion strategy that only convert the characters in the markdown syntax-related part to prevent this issue.
