New feature: Inline links - simpler syntax support about macdown HOT 7 OPEN

I would advocate something similar, but this will need additional features from Hoedown. I think they already have something going on (hoedown/hoedown#64), but nothing concrete yet.

In any case, the method you mentioned feels a bit too subtile to my liking. Something like Automatic Cross-References might be better—you write

# My heading {my-heading}

in the header, and link to it like

[My heading](#my-heading)

A little more verbose, but less magic going on.

I’ll leave this open as a reference/reminder. Will be on hold until the relevant feature is implemented in Hoedown.

Thanks for your reply! Yes, this is certainly better. I hope Hoedown implements this feature soon.

Would be a real great addition.
Hopefully will be implemented in howdown.

Pandoc has this feature. Some consistency across the markdown world would be nice. :-)

@Jmuccigr , I think this is why they invented CommonMark.

I guess we all would like MacDown to support CommonMark.

@RoyiAvital,

Yes, the developer of pandoc is on the common mark team as well. CommonMark isn't finalized yet either, so it's not so simple.

I see...
Hopefully they also add features beyond the ones they listed.

I wish they added:

1. Math.
2. Tables.
3. To Do List (Like in GitHub).
4. Tab for Text Indention (Aligning text like we do for code).
5. Alignment of Images.
6. Commenting mechanism.
7. Footnotes.
8. Reference system.
