Hello !

I was looking for CLI Markdown readers and found a few (MDLess, MDP, this one, and the one I'm about to recommend), as well as a simple command to convert it to HTML and display it through a CLI web browser : pandoc -t html README.md | lynx -stdin Pandoc is made in Haskell and Lynx already has its own reputation.

So after findle fondling around with these, the best one in my opinion is Glow. Written in Go, it has packages for several distributions and also a Go package ─ obviously. It looks good and I find this one gives the output with the best readability, very similar to this seemingly dead project.

Anyway, have a good day !

🙏 Thank you so much for sharing. I've been in search of a markdown viewer that just works!
