Does not work if two spaces between the - and the [ ] #95

Closed grantx2016 closed 2 years ago

The formatting for some markdown specifications work best with two spaces between the - and the [ ] (e.g. in GitLab, Wiki.js). Obsidian also supports checklists with two intermediate spaces, however this plugin does not recognise these as checklists so does not work.

I am not sure if this is a bug or a feature request but the plugin would be more robust if it supported both methods of creating a checklist (along with also supporting numbered checklists which is the subject of a separate issue).

Even though Obsidian supports two spaces, it is not part of common markdown rules, so therefore closing this. Better to not promote further corrupting of the ever fragmenting markdown specification.
