cat-md — concatenate files as a Markdown code block, copy to clipboard.

Usage:
  cat-md [OPTIONS] [FILE|DIR]...

  Each file is printed as:
      path/to/file:
      `` `
      <contents>
      `` `

  Directories are expanded non-recursively (all files inside).

Options:
  -n, --no-copy    Print to stdout only, skip clipboard copy
  -h, --help       Show this help and exit

Examples:
  cat-md file1.txt file2.txt
  cat-md src/
  cat-md -n file.txt              # no clipboard
  cat-md file.txt | wl-copy       # Wayland clipboard (manual override)

Requirements (one of):
  xclip  — X11 clipboard (preferred)
  xsel   — alternative X11 clipboard tool
