Hello, I am incompetent.

I've been personally using and daily using something I created myself called ght, and I've registered it with AUR.

yay -S ght-git

You can install it with this.

For example, when you are editing a Markdown file with vim, I think there are quite a few times when you want to get the link with its title.

In such cases,

:!ght -mc https://soulminingrig.com/

will copy it to the clipboard in Markdown format as shown below.

Internally,

curl -H "Range: bytes=0-4096" https://soulminingrig.com/

it makes a request with HTTP Range specification like this, parses the title tag, and falls back to no Range specification.

I wondered if there was already such a tool, but surprisingly there wasn't, so I created it at that time.
