marked.vim

Open the current Markdown buffer in Marked 2.

Adds :MarkedOpen, :MarkedQuit, :MarkedToggle, and :MarkedPreview commands to Markdown buffers, allowing you to quickly open, close, and preview content in Marked.

Note: Since Marked is available only for macOS, this plugin will not be loaded on other operating systems.

Usage

This plugin adds the following commands to Markdown buffers (see g:marked_filetypes below to add more FileTypes):

:MarkedOpen[!]

Open the current Markdown file in Marked. Call with a bang to prevent Marked from stealing focus from Vim. Documents opened in Marked are tracked and closed automatically when you quit Vim.

:MarkedQuit[!]

Close the current Markdown buffer in Marked. Quits Marked if there are no other documents open. Call with a bang to quit Marked completely.

:MarkedToggle[!]

If the current Markdown file is already open in Marked, same as :MarkedQuit[!]. If not, same as :MarkedOpen[!].

:[range]MarkedPreview[!]

Send the current range (defaults to the entire buffer) to Marked as a preview. Call with a bang to prevent Marked from stealing focus from Vim.

Configuration

g:marked_filetypes

Vim FileTypes that can be opened by Marked and will load this plugin. The default is as follows and can be customized in your vimrc if necessary:

let g:marked_filetypes = ["markdown", "mkd", "ghmarkdown", "vimwiki"]

g:marked_auto_quit

If true, quit Marked when Vim exits. Default is true. To disable, add the following to your vimrc:

let g:marked_auto_quit = 0

g:marked_app

The Marked application name. By default this is "Marked 2". If your version of Marked 2 doesn't open with open -a "Marked 2", you can specify a different name or path to the application.

let g:marked_app = "/Applications/Setapp/Marked 2.app"

Note that this plugin requires Marked 2. If you are still using Marked 1, you can use the 1.0.0 release of this plugin (see below).
