I know how to make a link in markdown `[text](url)` but I'm wondering how to fill in the url dynamically based on id. `http://mysite.com/#entry:2` doesn't work because it prints exactly that string out as the url. I want `#entry:2` to convert into the uri for that entry on output.

Just highlight the text and chose link -> entry Which will look something like this in the markup: `http://mysite.com/#entry:2` You can change the `#entry:2` title, slug - whatever and everything will still work since Craft is linking to the entry. It doesn't care what you call it.
