I'd love to have an AppleScript shortcut for creating an inline markdown link with BBEdit. Has anyone created a script that does this?

[Title Text](Link URL)

- surround currently selected text with brackets
- copy Link URL from clipboard, surround with parentheses and place immediately following closing bracket

Cheers, Frank

Not an AppleScript but perhaps this clipping would work for you
