Updates the README Usage section to explain that the format selection list is sorted by usage frequency, so formats the user selects more often appear at the top.

Agent Response

I've reviewed PR #61 and created a documentation suggestion.

Summary

PR #61 adds a user-requested feature that sorts the format selection quick-pick menu by usage frequency. Formats that users select more often will appear at the top of the list, making it faster to access frequently-used output formats.

Documentation Update

I updated the Usage section of the README to inform users about this helpful behavior. The change adds a single sentence to the existing paragraph about choosing from the format list:

The format list sorts by usage frequency—formats you use more often appear at the top.

This keeps the documentation concise while ensuring users know about this time-saving feature.

Citation: Based on PR #61 which adds usage frequency sorting to the format selection menu. The displayMenuAndRender function in src/extension.ts now tracks selection counts in globalState and sorts the quick-pick items by descending usage count.

Citation: Based on PR #61 which adds usage frequency sorting to the format selection list. The PR already documents the pandoc.sortByFrequency setting in the Settings section; this addition surfaces the feature in the Usage section where users first learn about selecting formats.
