The following shortcut creates a markdown table containing the number of columns and rows specified by the user. It is run as a service or by way of a keyboard shortcut. The shortcut has an intermittent bug that causes the original dialog to appear after an error dialog is displayed. The following screenshot only shows a portion of the shortcut.

The following shortcut creates a markdown table from text selected in the active app. It is run as a service or by way of a keyboard shortcut. Each line of the selected text is made into a row, and each tab in a line delineates a column. The tab delineator can be replaced with one or more characters in the first replace action, although regex special characters (i.e. * ? + [ ( ) { } ^ $ | \ .) have to be escaped with a backslash.

FWIW, I made a few changes to the shortcut in post 2 above. The column delineators are specified in the second replace action and are a comma followed by a space and a comma not followed by a space. Also, leading and trailing whitespace is removed from every line.
