Bookmarklet which builds a Markdown link to the current page

bookmarklet.js

javascript:!function(){var%20e=window.getSelection().toString(),t=document.title.replace(%22%20-%20Jira%22,%22%22),n=e%3Fe:t,o=%22[%22+n+%22](%22+location.href+%22)%22;(function(e){var%20t=document.createElement(%22textarea%22),n=document.getSelection();t.textContent=e,document.body.appendChild(t),n.removeAllRanges(),t.select(),document.execCommand(%22copy%22),n.removeAllRanges(),document.body.removeChild(t)})(o)}();

markdown-link.js

var selection = window.getSelection().toString();
var cleanTitle = document.title.replace(" - Jira", "");
var anchor = selection ? selection : cleanTitle;
var result = '[' + anchor + '](' + location.href + ')';
(function (text) {
    // https://gist.github.com/stefanmaric/2abf96c740191cda3bc7a8b0fc905a7d
    var node = document.createElement('textarea');
    var selection = document.getSelection();
    node.textContent = text;
    document.body.appendChild(node);
    selection.removeAllRanges();
    node.select();
    document.execCommand('copy');
    selection.removeAllRanges();
    document.body.removeChild(node);
})(result);

This bookmarklet builds a Markdown link to the current page, using the selected text (if any) or the page title as the link title.

Caveats

This works in Chrome. I have not tested it in any other browser.

Installation

1. Copy the exact content of bookmarklet.js to your clipboard.
2. Bookmark this page to Chrome's Bookmarks Bar
3. Right-click the bookmark and select "Edit."
4. Change the new bookmark's name to something like "Markdown Link," and paste to replace its URL with the exact content of bookmarklet.js.
5. Save the bookmark.

Build Notes

I'm using http://chriszarate.github.io/bookmarkleter/ to convert the script to a bookmarklet.
