Copy Page Link is a free Chrome add-on developed by Nicholas Hoyt. It falls under the category of Browsers and is classified as an Add-ons & Tools subcategory. This handy tool allows users to create a formatted link to the current page and copy it to the clipboard for easy pasting into another document.

With Copy Page Link, users can generate link markup for the current page in various formats such as HTML, LaTeX, Markdown, MediaWiki, and XML. The add-on provides keyboard accessibility, allowing users to quickly access its features using the 'alt-1' (or 'option-1' on Mac) keyboard shortcut. Additionally, it remembers the last link format copied and allows users to easily switch between different formats using the arrow keys.

By default, Copy Page Link uses the page title as the link text. However, if there is a text selection on the web page, it will be used as the link text instead. For users who prefer the XML format, there is an option to configure the names of the XML elements and attributes on the options page.

Copy Page Link is a useful tool for those who frequently need to share links in a specific format or want to customize the link text. It simplifies the process of generating formatted links and copying them to the clipboard, saving users valuable time and effort.
