I added a little hack to Fletcher Penney’s MultiMarkdown Quick Look generator to give it a default style (Github CSS) and allow for customization via a .mdqlstyle.css
file located in your home folder. Full details and download available on Github.

I have found that some Markdown tools which come with their own Quick Look generators will always override my custom one, even when they aren’t the file’s owner (e.g. iA Writer). I don’t know how to get around this short of the brute force hack: open the Info.plist
inside the qlgenerator file within the offending app’s bundle and delete the entry for net.daringfireball.markdown
. That, or just delete the .qlgenerator bundle in the app entirely. That only works until the next time you upgrade, though, and it’s not recommended. If anyone knows a better solution, please shout.
