Indeed, this is a huge step forward, also in connection with earlier requests! The development team at Obsidian is really cranking out the meaningful improvements.
Here’s how I’m already using this: on macOS:
- From Obsidian, use the “Show in Folder” command (via a hotkey ⌘⌥-O), which opens up the Finder with currently focal Obsidian note selected in Finder.
- Show the Hook window for the selected file, and then select “Copy Markdown Link” (I use hyperkey, ⌘⌥⌃⇧, with
;
for that). - Now I have a markdown link to my current note, with the filename, to paste anywhere. Very handy!
