I'm looking for a simple terminal-based viewer for Markdown files. I
*don't* want an editor. Think 'less', not 'emacs'. I don't mind if it
wants to pop up a window to show rich text, but it's not critical.
It seems remarkably* difficult to find such a beast.
I've been using mdv. For example, to check my Python module docstrings
(which I do in Markdown) before release:
distinfo cs.lex long_description|mdv -
"distinfo" is an alias associated with my release scripts, but the
important thing here is that it empts the Markdown to stdout into "mkv".
Views nicely in a terminal.

I found this at
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/4140/markdown-viewer
I wrote a lightweight terminal markdown viewer in python, for CLI or as lib:
* https://github.com/axiros/terminal_markdown_viewer
It supports e.g. tables, admonitions and tons of color themes.
Usage:
mdv [-t THEME] [-T C_THEME] [-x] [-l] [-L] [-c COLS] [-f FROM] [-m]
[-M DIR] [-H] [-A] [MDFILE]
Options:
MDFILE : Path to markdown file
-t THEME : Key within the color ansi_table.json. 'random' accepted.
-T C_THEME: Theme for code highlight. If not set: Use THEME.
-l : Light background (not yet supported)
-L : Display links
-x : Do not try guess code lexer (guessing is a bit slow)
-f FROM : Display FROM given substring of the file.
-m : Monitor file for changes and redisplay FROM given substring
-M DIR : Monitor directory for markdown file changes
-c COLS : Fix columns to this (default: your terminal width)
-A : Strip all ansi (no colors then)
-H : Print html version
