I can't even paste such a link into Xcode itself, which is telling. I can't paste into Sublime Text. I <em>can</em> paste into TextEdit (perhaps supporting your RTF idea, though other rich text seems to work). I'll dig into it, but the proper fix probably needs to come from Apple, given that even Xcode can't paste it... I have not heard of difficulty pasting links from anywhere else -- I'll be curious to figure out exactly what's going on.</p>
<p>2) re: grabbing page titles off the web -- I'll think about this one. To be honest, this behavior annoys me in other apps that support it. It rarely gives me the result I want. It would also require consistent behavior in terms of when to implement this functionality (e.g. Composer currently offers several variations of pasting URLs depending on what is selected). Will also have to dig into synchronous vs asynchronous behavior -- Apple's networking calls are migrating towards asynchronous (I believe), which makes this much trickier. I can use libCurl easily on Mac, which is synchronous, but this is trickier on iOS and I'm still looking for a solution there for MultiMarkdown itself (e.g. ePub exporting.) I'm not saying no, but this won't happen quickly.</p>

<p>It should work, but you'll probably have to investigate the different<br>
pasteboard types.</p></div>Paul Solttag:support.multimarkdown.com,2013-02-12:Comment/462284812018-10-09T21:58:07Z2018-10-09T21:58:07ZCannot Paste Links from Xcode Documentation<div><p>Yeah -- Xcode copies the URL type, but does not copy a text type. So<br>
pasting it into an NSTextView doesn't work.</p>
<p>I tried replacing the contents of the pasteboard mid-stream in this<br>
situation, but that doesn't work.</p>
<p>I think to fix this would require rewriting the entire paste workflow,<br>
since I currently rely on default macOS behavior. Not the end of the<br>
world by any means, but annoying.</p>

how it works yet ...</p>
