I've been using mdv. For example, to check my Python module docstrings (which I
do in Markdown) before release:
distinfo cs.lex long_description|mdv -
"distinfo" is an alias associated with my release scripts, but the important
thing here is that it empts the Markdown to stdout into "mkv".
^^^mdv
Views nicely in a terminal.
Not seeing mdv in the standard repos.
