A macro which copies selected markdown to the clipboard in two forms:

Just as an FYI…
On M1-based Macs, Homebrew no longer installs to /usr/local/ but to /opt/homebrew/
So if you wanted to use this on an M1-based Mac that had installed multimarkdown via brew you would need to change all references of
/usr/local/bin/multimarkdown
to
/opt/homebrew/bin/multimarkdown
I've also mentioned this to Brett Terpstra, because some of his Markdown tools also assume /usr/local/bin/ as the only install location -- which made sense until very recently.

Thanks for sharing!
Currently using this removes all line breaks. Is it possible to keep line breaks? Thanks

That's essentially a feature of Markdown, which assumes that:
See, for example, the Paragraphs section of:
If that's not how you're working, then you may need a preceding script (or Keyboard Maestro action) which replaces \n with \n\n.
@ComplexPoint Hey there, I could use a hand. I'm on a M1 MacBook Pro so I've swapped the file paths in the 2 places appropriately. I've started to draft my emails in Obsidian Markdown and wanted to be able to copy from Obsidian and paste as rich text in macOS Outlook. I've got it on a Hyper+V trigger. Trouble is, it seems to work inconsistently. Most of the time nothing happens, and then sometimes it will paste. The times that it has pasted I've noticed that it took quite a bit of time.
Can it really take that long to do the text transformation for pasting? Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated, thank you!
