Insert Markdown syntax around selected text

I am hoping to create some shortcut buttons on my X-Keys 80 to insert some Markdown syntax text around selected text when I hit a button.

For example if I select/highlight some text and hit a button to make that text bold in Markdown it would take the selected text and add ** before and after the selected text:

bold text

**bold text**

Is there anyway to do such a task?

Re: Insert Markdown syntax around selected text

I programmed the shortcut CTRL+B and saw the same action in Markdown. I'd highlight the word and press the button, the word became bold on one side and had **WORD** on the other side.
