IMHO electron based markdown editors are generally slow, bloated, short-lived, and often platform-limited. Use this and add sed lines for any required non-breakyness per normal CSS, rules can be specific to @media print as required. $ cat ~/bin/mdview
#!/bin/bash
# markdown viewer
tmpfile=.mdview.tmp-`uuidgen`.html
# start html
echo "<html><head><style>img{margin:20px;max-width:100%}@media print{img{max-height:90%;max-width:90%;page-break-after:always}}body{margin:6em;font-family:sans}pre,code{font-weight:bold;font-size:110%;font-family:Ubuntu Mono}</style></head><body>" >${tmpfile}
# duplicate markdown for modification
cp ${1} ${1}.mdtmp
# add extra newline after trailing :
sed -i -e 's/: \*$/:\r\r\n\n/' ${1}.mdtmp
# generate HTML from markdown
# note the --html-no-skiphtml --html-no-escapehtml allows the preservation
# of <a name="blah"></a> anchors within text to allow [link][#anchorname]
lowdown --html-no-skiphtml --html-no-escapehtml -thtml ${1}.mdtmp >>${tmpfile}
# remove the temporary markdown file
rm ${1}.mdtmp
# add newline before images
sed -i -e 's/<img/<br><img/' ${tmpfile}
# view result
firefox $tmpfile &
# sleep for a short moment
sleep 1.25
# remove the temporary file
rm ${tmpfile}
