@@ -182,6 +208,7 @@ The plugin defines the following functions.
 - `follow_link()`: take text between brackets (linked note) and open a Telescope file finder with it: selects note to open (incl. preview) - with optional note creation for non-existing notes, honoring the configured template
 - `yank_notelink()` : yank a link to the current note, ready to paste
 - `show_calendar()` : opens up the calendar in a properly-sized vertical split at the very right
+- `paste_img_and_link()` : pastes an image from the clipboard into a file under `image_subdir` and inserts a link to it at the current cursor position
 - `setup(opts)`: used for configuring paths, file extension, etc.
 
 To use one of the functions above, just run them with the `:lua ...` command.
