-# Sample Document
+# Sample File
 
-This is a sample markdown document for testing the markdown-tree-parser package.
-
-## Overview
-
-This document demonstrates various markdown features and structures that can be parsed and manipulated.
-
-### Key Features
-
-- **Bold text** and *italic text*
-- `Inline code` and code blocks
-- [Links](https://example.com) and ![images](image.png)
-- Lists and tables
-
-### Architecture
-
-The document follows a hierarchical structure with multiple heading levels.
-
-## Installation
-
-Follow these steps to get started:
-
-### Prerequisites
-
-Make sure you have the following installed:
-
-1. Node.js (version 18 or higher)
-2. npm package manager
-3. A text editor
-
-### Quick Install
-
-```bash
-npm install markdown-tree-parser
-```
-
-### Configuration
-
-You can configure the parser with various options:
-
-```javascript
-const parser = new MarkdownTreeParser({
-  bullet: '-',
-  emphasis: '_'
-});
-```
-
-## Usage Examples
-
-Here are some common usage patterns.
-
-### Basic Usage
-
-```javascript
-import { MarkdownTreeParser } from 'markdown-tree-parser';
-
-const parser = new MarkdownTreeParser();
-const tree = await parser.parse(markdown);
-```
-
-### Advanced Features
-
-For more complex scenarios:
-
-- Extract specific sections
-- Search with CSS selectors
-- Transform document structure
-- Generate statistics
-
-### CLI Usage
-
-The package includes a powerful CLI:
-
-```bash
-md-tree list document.md
-md-tree extract document.md "Installation"
-```
-
-## API Reference
-
-### Core Methods
-
-The main parser class provides these methods:
-
-- `parse(markdown)` - Parse markdown to AST
-- `stringify(tree)` - Convert AST to markdown
-- `extractSection(tree, heading)` - Extract sections
-- `selectAll(tree, selector)` - CSS-like search
-
-### Utility Functions
-
-Additional helper functions:
-
-- `getHeadingsList(tree)` - List all headings
-- `getStats(tree)` - Document statistics
-- `generateTableOfContents(tree)` - Create TOC
-
-## Testing
-
-The package includes comprehensive tests:
-
-```bash
-npm test
-npm run test:cli
-```
-
-### Test Coverage
-
-- Unit tests for all core functions
-- Integration tests for CLI commands
