introduces significant improvements for ease of use and performance,
including a transition to vanilla JavaScript and a streamlined activation
method.

Why Make Changes?

When I first tried Du Dang's script, I thought it was great but had some
trouble with the keyboard shortcut of Shift+Shift+T. When looking at the
code, I realized there were a few things that could be enhanced for a
slightly better user experience.

Changes in the Enhanced Version

• 
  Transition to Vanilla JavaScript: Replaced jQuery-based
  code with vanilla JavaScript to enhance performance and reduce
  dependencies.
  
• 
  Clipboard API Integration: Replaced ClipboardJS with
  the native Clipboard API for copying text to the clipboard.
  
• 
  Activation Method: The script is now activated via the
  Tampermonkey menu or the UserScript manager menu, eliminating reliance
  on keyboard shortcuts. This change makes the script more accessible and
  user-friendly as some users may already have the keyboard shortcuts
  assigned to other functions as I did.
  
• 
  Comments Removal: Removed all comments from the script
  for cleaner and more efficient code.
  
• 
  Metadata Update: Updated the script's metadata,
  including the version number to 2.1.0, and authorship to reflect the new
  maintainer while crediting the original creator.
  

Using the Enhanced Script

To activate the script, select the "Convert Table to Markdown" option from
the Tampermonkey menu or your UserScript manager menu. This action will
add a purple-colored "MD" button to the top right cell of each table on
the page. Clicking this button will convert the table to Markdown format
and copy it to your clipboard.

Test the Script

Users can test the script on the following webpage:
W3Schools HTML Tables. This page contains several tables that the script can process.
