Hi,

I’m looking for a way to paste codeblocks with a “contextual” information like filename.  
Right now, I can just write it but it’s not part of the codeblock.

Example how I would like to see it in Obsidian:  
 ![image](https://forum.obsidian.md/uploads/default/original/3X/0/1/016fcb49a8943c1ca507a398e831b542477310f8.png)  
Instead of `C#` I would like to give some filename.

So that when I see my code snippet, I see the filename of the snippet. Right now I can just write it above or below but it doesn’t get rendered as codeblock.

Is there any plugin / theme hack to implement this?

Thanks!
