Feature Request: Inline markdown preview #57

Open marcohamersma opened 12 years ago

marcohamersma commented 12 years ago

I don't know if this is realistic, but I'd love to see a feature similar to what Byword and IA Writer have: Formatting your text as you're writing Markdown:

This would allow you to see the effect of the markdown that you're typing, without using the preview window.

+1 for the feature, or something like what MoU has as in a split view? that would work too.

oobleck commented 12 years ago

+1

In the same vein as the feature request I just submitted.

ByteDoc commented 11 years ago

+1 ... I would love that feature as well.

nvALT has a split-window preview function ⌃⌘P (you can even use custom css).

Brett develops nvALT for free (Notational Velocity's main branch is GNU GPLv3). He also makes Marked [$11.99], which is a side-by-side previewer for any MultiMarkdown (or Fountain, or Critic Mark-Up) file, anywhere on your system. Buy Marked, support nvALT.

For a neat trick: drag your nvNotes folder onto Marked, and watch the app display the most recently updated note as you're working on multiple notes. ⌃⌘M opens it. Split-window preview takes getting used to, but is immensely powerful once you start using it regularly.

If your heart is set on inline preview, there are a number of apps that do that and set it up as your default editor in nvALT through ⇧⌘E.
