Now offers the ability to set jump destination as the beginning or end of a section (defaults to end).

Another take on an action to aid navigation within a draft. This allows for jumping to the beginning or end of a section in a markdown document (where a section = a header + any text under that header).

Steps

script

function escapeRegExp(string) {
    return string.replace(/[.*+?^${}()|[\]\\]/g, '\\$&'); // $& means the whole matched string
}

const array = draft.lines
const headers = array.filter(value => /^#+/.test(value));

let p = Prompt.create();
    p.title = "go to";

    for (var header of headers) {
        p.addButton(header);
    }       
    p.addSegmentedControl("pos", "", ["beginning","end"], "end")
    p.isCancellable = true

    if (p.show()) {
        selHeader = p.buttonPressed
        sel = editor.getSelectedLineRange()
        editor.setSelectedRange(sel[0],sel[1])
        selText =  editor.getSelectedText()

        regex = new RegExp(escapeRegExp(p.buttonPressed) + "\n(.|[\r\n\t\f\v ])*?\n\n","g")
        // regex for header and text (allows to locate the end of a block)
        	// I should be able to use \s, but for some reason the slash was being ignored... 

		block = editor.getText().match(regex)[0].replace(/\n+$/, "")

		if (p.fieldValues["pos"] == "end") { 
			editor.setSelectedRange(editor.getText().indexOf(block)+block.length,0)	
		} else {	
			editor.setSelectedRange(editor.getText().indexOf(selHeader)+selHeader.length,0)	
		}
		editor.activate()		
					    	        
       }
