# Print Web Title
!!! note
Start this with `cadmus tools webtitle`
## What does it do
This transforms a URL in the clipboard into a formatted link
## How Do I use it
Copy / Paste a URL then type `cadmus tools webtitle`, the clipboard should be transformed into a formatted link with the right title.
## When Would This Be Used
This is great for footnotes.
### Example

## How does it Work
So essentially this just uses ~skim~ and ~bat~ to filter/preview the notes, the interactive command is used with ~ripgrep~ and piping (that took me forever to figure out!!) to highlight the match in the preview.[^4] This is the code that achieves it:
```bash
sk -m -i -c 'recoll -b -t -q "ext:md" {} |\
cut -c 8- | sed s/^/realpath\ \"/ |\
sed s+\$+\"\ --relative-to\ \"./\"+ | bash' \
--bind pgup:preview-page-up,pgdn:preview-page-down \
--preview "bat --color=always --line-range :500 \
--terminal-width 80 --theme=TwoDark {+} \
--italic-text=always \
--decorations=always" \
--color=fg:#f8f8f2,bg:-1,matched:#6272a4,current_fg:#50fa7b,current_bg:#381070,border:#ff79c6,prompt:#bd93f9,query:#bd93f9,marker:#f1fa8c,header:#f1fa8c
```
[^4]: This highlighting works with both ~bat~ and *MDCat*, I prefer *MDCat* but there is a bug with footnotes preventing me from being able to use it right at the moment.
