QuickLook preview

It would be great to have the preview be shown in QuickLook, instead of the highlighted raw MarkDown file preview provided by MarkEdit.
I previously used QLMarkdown, but it would be preferable to have MarkEdit with MarkEdit-preview be able to do so.

Thanks for the feedback. This was something I initially considered as well.

That said, I chose not to pursue it because I wanted to keep the preview extension simple, especially given that preview support is not even a built-in feature of the main app. In most cases, I still prefer to view the raw source rather than an HTML-rendered representation in Quick Look. Supporting HTML previews would introduce a number of additional complexities, including user interaction handling, settings management, capability to run the preview extension, and a larger bundle size.

For now, the trade-offs do not feel justified. I may revisit this later.

Thank you for your response, those considerations make sense. Personally I'd still welcome it very much! Thank you for your work on MarkEdit.
