Dear Patrick, many hanks for clarification!
Interestingly, the situation is the same with Devonthink on .md files. I can open an md. file and it gets rendered but clicking on a link to another .md file will be opened in BBEdit editor mode. (Some time ago, I could use DT as browser on rtf documents, but it is its internal doc format). The situation is same even with Obsidian whose document format is .md, but any time I activate and external .md file it gets opened with BBEdit :) . (Within the app I can of course browse over the internal .md files). So, my best bet right know for presentation/browsing over arbitrary interlinked markdown files (without living preview mode) is to try Marked 2 or a similar program. Best regards, Tibor > On 2021.
