* remember "Allow access to file URLs" * use "github" css that make images looks better and Chinese characters displayed properly.

Tested three other md viewers, none supported lists, this one was the first to do so. 5 stars after finding the option to hide the "M" in the browser bar

Works very well. I like the refresh ability, so it works more like a side-by-side editor/preview when viewing file:/ resources in Chrome while editing the files in a text editor. There are some minor problems, for example `*text*` is rendered as *text* instead of italicized code. But this extension does a better job at handling GitHub flavored markdown, specifically ``` some code block with line breaks ``` whereas another Markdown Preview extension does not handle that notation. The syntax coloring for JSON in ```JSON ``` blocks is sometimes off but that is not a major problem.

Pros: supports tables from GitHub-flavored Markdown. Cons: text encoding badly supported (utf8, accents).

Very fair Markdown Viewer, inside Chrome. It would be a bit better if there was no need to manually set the Allow access to File URLs option.

It still have some issues to deal with. International characters are messed up. Seem like it uses windows decoding as default. Syntax highlighting is applied to parts of words, which can make preformatted text look wierd. For example with "sudo", the second half of the word is highlighted, because it is "do".
