Command Line

This plugin adds enhanced support for command line code blocks to Obsidian.

Features

  • Copy command lines from your notes without selecting text.
  • Prompts and output are removed from clipboard contents to support pasting into terminal sessions.
  • Default prompts are provided for command lines that do not specify one.
  • Optional syntax highlighting and styling using Prism Command Line.
  • Optional support for removing unnecessary white space from clipboard contents.
  • Supports mobile and desktop.

Getting Started

Command line code blocks are identified using one of the following languages:

NameHighlightPrompt PatternDefault PromptContinuation
command-lineN/AAny belowC:\>Any below
batch-commandbatch/\S*?>/C:\>^
powershell-commandpowershell/\S*?>/PS>`
shell-commandshell/\S*?[#$%]/$\

For example, copying the following code block to the clipboard will remove the prompt and output while preserving line continuations and white space:

```shell-command
$ command with \
    line continuation
and output, which will be removed
from the clipboard.
```

[!NOTE] If clipboard normalization is enabled in Settings, unnecessary white space (including line continuations) will be removed in addition to the prompt and output.
