Tips

Enable Markdown Table Formatter for the current file type

To enable Markdown Table Formatter for your current file type: put your cursor in the file, open the Command Palette ^ (CONTROL)+⇧ (SHIFT)+P (⌘ (CMD)+⇧ (SHIFT)+P for mac), and run the Markdown Table Formatter: Enable for current language command. This will add language grammar from current editor to the list of languages in the settings for the Markdown Table Formatter package. You can edit this setting manually later if you want to.
