Both these statements are true:
-- There are ("too"?) many Markdown editors
-- This is exactly what we need.
I like composing drafts in Markdown but I have to export them (to PDF to view and mark up in Remarkable, to Word to share with some people and so) quite often, and going into pandoc and remembering the commands adds extra layers.
This is a huge contribution.
p.s. because this is Hacker News, I hope some smart person is going to point out an even more efficient way to switch contexts. I am here for it if it doesn't involve trying to learn emacs for the 87th time.

- tombert 5y agoI would recommend finding out how to execute a shell command in whatever editor you use, and then write a script that does the exporting with the settings you care about. Then bind a command in the editor to that renderer. Not emacs but not that different either; I personally use tmux with Vim on the top pane, and a split with the command line on the bottom, and a workspace split with Apple Preview on the left. Here is a sample of it: https://i.imgur.com/oqss6SO.png https://i.imgur.com/oqss6SO.png It's not for everyone, but I can't think in anything but Vim now.
