How to use
You can use keyboard shortcuts, context menus, or the toolbar button of Format Link extension
to copy a link in the specified format. Before doing that, you can optionally select some text
which may or may not contain a link.
- keyboard shortcut
  The keyboard shortcut for "Copy a link in the default format" is shortcut for clicking the
  toolbar button. The link is copied in the default format and the popup is shown under
  the toolbar button.
  
  Also there are shortcuts for copying in the link in the corresponding format regardless of
  the default format.
  
  See Manage extension shortcuts in Firefox | Firefox Help for showing and changing keyboard shortcuts.

  Open the context menu and select the "Format Link as XXX" menu item.
  "XXX" in the menu item label changes as you change the default format by clicking the "Set as default" button in the popup page for the toolbar button.
  
  If you check the "Create submenus" in the options page and save the options,
  submenus for each format are created under the "Format Link" context menu group.
- toolbar button
