About mdv
mdv displays Markdown with colors and formatting in a terminal. It can also render Markdown in source code docstrings, which can be useful when reading documentation over SSH or alongside terminal work.
The project describes itself as a proof of concept and says complex Markdown structures, especially inline HTML, may not render well.
