Adds support for plaintext editing into obsidian. My own purpose is to edit .bib files directly, but surely others can find reasons to use it.

[Feature Request] Index files based on extensions so they are searchable through search #17

when using "search in all files", the result not including the word in the txt file

The reason this doesn't work yet is because the default search functionality only searches through indexed files. Currently, Plaintext does not index any files, so it's expected to not work.

I'm very surprised a plugin for plaintext cannot handle plain search (maybe driven by a flaw in Obsidian plugin ecosystem, but still odd from the outside).

I can't find the text I want to edit without Ctrl+F or / so this plugin is definitely not useful even though it seems like it's 99% of the way there 🤔

I'm commenting to hopefully sign up to help add this functionality, not complain 😇
