Resumen

Resumen Principal

md2cb se presenta como una herramienta altamente funcional y relevante para la conversión eficiente de Markdown, específicamente GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM), a HTML enriquecido. Su propósito central es optimizar el flujo de trabajo de los usuarios al permitirles redactar contenido en Markdown y luego transformarlo, copiándolo directamente al portapapeles del sistema

Contenido

md2cb - Markdown to clipboard converter.

Converts GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) to rich HTML and copies it to the system clipboard for pasting into Word, Google Docs, Pages, Teams, etc.

Usage

Then, paste the copied clipboard content to the target app.

Add --edit/-e flag to edit the content in $EDITOR before converting. -e would open an empty markdown file if run without any input (file or stdin).

Notes

Most of the code was written by Claude Code, with some code review from Copilot!

At work I need to use Teams. It supports a few makdown features, but the editing experience for long message isn't smooth. So, I often write in NVim and use the below shell script to convert them before paste to Teams.

pandoc --from gfm --to html |
    textutil -convert rtf -stdin -stdout -format html |
    pbcopy -Prefer

The script work well for typical bullet list, but:

Doesn't support image, mermaid.
Mac only.

Hence, I build this.
