yaml front matter about scripts HOT 11 CLOSED

I've updated the script name and the description. Feel free to make a pull request if you have any ideas how to make it clearer.

I've updated the script. Please, test a new option.

Yes, I consider we have a highlighting issue with dots. It wasn't there when I implemented the first version of the script.

Could you post an example of what you want to use.

Sure. Like this: https://jekyllrb.com/docs/front-matter/
The only difference is that it is closed by 3 dashes, not 3 periods.

Sorry for delay.

The following test note already works with the script.

---
tags: test
---
# Test Note

Could you post the test note that reproduces the issue.

from scripts.

Oh, find, it works, if your yaml front matter ends with dashes.

But if you have an untagged note and you add the first tag to that note, it will create like:

---
tags: test
...
# Test Note

Yes, I know one can replace the three dots, but it also screws up highlighting in the note, so at least an option would be welcome.

thanks

Ok, I'll implement an option for dashes.

Works like a charm.

I'd articulate the standardness of the new option in the docs. (Could mention Epsilon notes, but the solution is more "general" now 🎉)

I like, that this way, all information is in the markdown files.

Many other markdown editors honour yaml front matter. (see https://jekyllrb.com/docs/front-matter/ for eg.)

I'm not sure about "standardness", since YAML spec says to use dots for YAML ending and dashes for separation. But I'll think about updating the docs. Thanks.

Whoops, you are right. Then you can say widespreadness :) Then do we have a display issue with the QOwnNotes editor highlighting?

Marktext also displays just the three-dash version right:

Typora also votes for dashes:
