obsidian-editing-toolbar Plugin

[!tip] The 3.x version has been completely refactored with numerous new features. For advanced usage, please refer to: Editing Toolbar Plugin Advanced Guide · PKM-er/obsidian-editing-toolbar · Discussion #217"

Thanks to the cmenu plugin, which gave me a lot of inspiration, but this plugin has not been maintained for more than a year, so I re-modified it and added a lot of interesting features, including the top toolbar, cursor following, etc., so editing toolbar was created.

Obsidian Editing Toolbar is a plugin that provides a toolbar similar to MS-Word,and adds a minimal and user friendly text editor modal for a smoother writing/editing experience . This plugin makes text editing and firing commands easier for those that don't wish to configure a multitude of hotkeys.No need to remember complex markdown commands, similar to a rich text editor as WYSIWYG. This plugin was specifically designed for note-takers that want to have a simple text editor to aid in marking up their notes. It solves the issue of having to memorize numerous hotkeys and/or use multiple key presses to get the desired markup. A simple toolbar to improve your writing experience in Obsidian!

It is recommended to work with Enhanced Editing Plugin, which can add more useful editing commands.
