What is a normal markdown editor that is PDF friendly and has syntax highlighting for code?
Already went through everything, and crafts on the electron like typora and atom.
More or less liked Retext and ghostwriter. But neither one nor the other normally convert to PDF.
Retext seems to be trying, but it ends up with some gray borders around the edges in the final PDF file.
And typora, on the contrary, generates pdf well and supports many markdown dialects, but firstly it is on the electron, the brakes are terrible, and secondly, for some reason, my nemo conductor hangs. Well, okay, you can measure this and use some kind of console explorer like ranger or vifm, but it’s not tolerable to fight with these brakes, and besides, it’s written that it is in beta state.
In case of questions like "have you installed dependencies like pandoc, markdown, texlive-full, libjs-mathjax wkhtmltopdf" - I answer that YES I installed it in PATH. I've done everything.
With syntax highlighting for the code, not everything is good either.
In Retext, it is not highlighted at all, but it is convenient to copy without any line break characters, only text.
In typora, the opposite is true, high-quality syntax highlighting, but you experience pain when you need to copy commands and paste it into the console, since it is copied along with the newline character and the console immediately starts executing the command.
I am using Debian OS.
