To view my notes in markdown before download #83

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I know there is a way to download my notes as Markdown, but I would love to view my notes in markdown as well. This way I have more control before download or I could just easily copy my text and paste it where I want it instead.

Describe the solution you'd like To view my notes in Markdown.

Describe alternatives you've considered Right now I would have to download, open the file, edit it, or copy and paste it somewhere else. Which is an annoying workaround, as it takes more time.

Additional context It would save time.

Extra:
Also I noticed when downloading to Markdown, the Timestamps are all in comments and with a \ to escape characters. Why is it not automatically linked? This is what I get: 

<!-- ## \[0:06\](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dM6AmNmMFA&t=6) \-->

And this is what I want

[0:06](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dM6AmNmMFA&t=6)

And when I write markdown in my notes, it escape that as well. And generally the markdown version is worse than, for example, the PDF version... It comes with correct timestamps, notes to them as well as screenshots from the video.

The issue with commented out time stams is also addressed in #84.

I fully support your request to have to possibility to copy the markdown either directly into the clipboard or to have a possibility to view the notes in markdown format.
