Dear All,

I am thinking of getting into markdown (for note management and interlinking, 
maybe with some additional apps - currently I use huge plain text log files and 
grep searches in BBEdit).

It seems that .md files are automatically assigned to BBEdit (I haven’t done 
it), and it has a nice .md language mode. The live link to the built-in 
preview, even with full screen mode is also very nice. I am also testing 
Obsidian (which works with plain text .md files), and if I use therein relative 
links BBEdit can find the files: it opens the linked .md. Obsidian has a 
presentation mode, but it does not follow links, shows just a single document.

I would like to be able to make a simple presentation using interlinked .md 
files (following the links, stepping back to previous .md, and the like) and 
staying in the BBEdit Preview window.

However, when I click on a link (in the preview) to another .md file then it 
opens a rendering in the selected (or unselected) browser (and not in its own 
preview), and from Safari I can not follow additional link. Safari does not 
even allows me to open .md files directly. Maybe BBEdit renders the .md into 
html and calles the browser.

Is it possible to have the BBEdit preview to open new .md files by clicking to 
links and REMAIN WITHIN THE BBEdit Preview, preferably in full screen mode (and 
opening the .md files in the background)?.

I could achieve something similar with Devonthink using rtf files: created a 
master document with links in it to other docs. Worked well, including the 
navigation. So far I could not do it even in Devonthink with .md files.

If this is not possible with BBEdit, what are the alternatives?

With best wishes,

Tibor
