QLMarkdown is a simple QuickLook generator for Markdown files. It renders a preview of the selected Markdown file using Discount -- a C implementation of John Gruber's Markdown.pl script.
To update to the latest version of discount run ./discount-config/update-discount.sh
For more information on Markdown see http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/.
Simply copy QLMarkdown.qlgenerator to ~/Library/QuickLook or /Library/QuickLook.
If the newly installed plugin is not picked up instantly, you run qlmanage -r in a terminal to refresh.
To uninstall, drag QLMarkdown into the trash.
