## Kitsmith's take

Built specifically around MultiMarkdown (tables, footnotes, citations, cross-references) rather than treating it as an add-on to plain Markdown, using the MMD v6 engine for syntax highlighting and preview. The free base version opens and previews a single document; the Standard upgrade adds multi-document support, printing, and export (HTML, EPUB, LaTeX, TextPack), and Pro adds text expansion and cross-device settings sync. Current upgrade prices aren’t listed on the developer’s site.

## Features

- **MultiMarkdown-native engine:** Built on MultiMarkdown v6 for accurate syntax highlighting and preview of tables, footnotes, and cross-references.
- **Smart Pairs & elastic tabstops:** Auto-completes bracket/quote pairs and aligns tab-separated columns based on surrounding text width.
- **TOC, References & CriticMarkup sidebars:** Dedicated sidebars for document outline, reference-style link definitions, and tracked changes.
- **Outliner interop:** Reads and writes OPML and iThoughts ITMZ files for round-tripping with mind-mapping and outlining apps.
