Hi Bob,

.md files are just plain text (that is, j= ust unicode (or ascii) character codes; that's it). You can open .md files = in

  * Notepad (though Notepad in parti= cular may not display line breaks correctly),

  * your web browser (though, oddly,= Firefox may not be set up out of the box to recognize .md files as the pla= in text that they are)

  * LibreOffice

  * As James recommends, NotePad++, = a text-editor app, the specific purpose of which is for writing plain text = files.

The easiest way to read markdown (.md) fi= les is to just open them up and read them with one of the apps listed above= . But you can also process an .md file into a .html file using pandoc, and = then open the resulting html file in your web browser.

You could also install a LaTeX distributi= on, which contains the necessary tools to allow pandoc to convert the .md f= ile into a .pdf file. And then run pandoc on the .md to get the .pdf file o= ut.

If you install a LaTeX distribution, and = install Pandoc, there may be a small graphical app to help you convert docu= ments, but I'm not familiar with such a thing.
