I know, some guys will say:
Why you’d use
that kind of strange syntax? It is not a correct syntax!
Actually, it is ==a correct and beautiful markdown syntax==, you can find it at CommonMark Spec Example 486, it’s explain is:

It’s kind of surprising me that few people know this syntax, and even some other developers don’t know that too!
Next, what is the reason to use this syntax? Well, mainly because it’s intuitive, tidy, beautiful, and commonly supported by other Markdown editors.

Expected enhancement
- Repair the updating link bug to the pointy bracket syntax
- When using Markdown links, inserting a file whose name have spaces, use the pointy bracket instead of replacing spaces into
