So, of course, I'm going to recommend an editor - vim, in its view
form, which makes it readonly (same as vim -R)
It has a plugin for markdown, and will highlight keywords.
I'm not familiar with vim plugins, but I copied
/usr/share/vim/vim81/syntax/markdown.vim to ~/.vim/plugin and fired up
vim with a .md file. It didn't seem to do anything (i.e. I just see the
raw Markdown). Am I missing something?
