Home Software Firefox Markdown Viewer

Markdown Viewer

To open local Markdown files in Firefox (Debian 9) with Markdown Viewer (v.1.3.0), you need to create a new MIME type.

~/.local/share/mime/packages/text-markdown.xml: <?xml version="1.0"?> <mime-info xmlns='http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info'> <mime-type type="text/plain"> <glob pattern="*.md"/> <glob pattern="*.mkd"/> <glob pattern="*.markdown"/> </mime-type> </mime-info>

Then run:

$ update-mime-database ~/.local/share/mime.
