Excellent! It does what it should do. Feature requests: - To have access to the config file that is editable for example changing colors and fonts

This really is a good app- thank you. I dont use md, ever. but this works well for HTML and Javascript editing. Preview is essential and it functions great here without having to hit a button. I wish I didnt have to open caret to do a regex find and replace. Local file access and tabs that persist make up for that.
