How to remove template name from link to Typst output?

[aaronschiff]

Description

This is pretty minor but ... I care about details 😅

I have a project that produces html and pdf output via a custom Typst template. I have used format-link in the project's _quarto.yml file to change the way the link to the Typst output is displayed in the html table of contents, but it still includes the template's name in brackets. Is there a way to remove the template name?

Here is the relevant part of the project _quarto.yml, where my template is called "cheatsheet":

format:
  html:
    toc: true
  cheatsheet-typst:
    toc: false

format-links:
  - html
  - format: cheatsheet-typst
    text: PDF
    icon: file-pdf

Here's link in the rendered html:

I'd like it to just say "PDF".

I don't think there is a way right now. We always include extension name for a format in that case

Reference for us: This is done here

quarto-cli/src/format/html/format-html-links.ts

Lines 95 to 104 in 9724c3d

	return {
	title: `${
	title ||
	renderedFormat.format.identifier[kDisplayName] ||
	renderedFormat.format.pandoc.to
	}${
	renderedFormat.format.identifier[kExtensionName]
	? ` (${renderedFormat.format.identifier[kExtensionName]})`
	: ""
	}`,

Maybe the other form using href to the output file, and text could work as a workaround.

To change this behavior we would probably need to add a new configuration option. Something like post-title ? (Not a great name 🤔 )

I have opened an issue to track the enhancement
