This is a feature request to add support for the great quickcursor app.

It's an app that lets you edit any text in any app (e.g. in this Github Issues text input field) in your favorite text editor (MacDown!). Just press a shortcut, and the app opens, and text is pasted back into the correct field when the text window is closed.

I created an issue about support for this in the quickcursor app, but looks like there is something which needs to be added to the text editor itself for this to work properly. Link to issue here: jessegrosjean/quickcursor#41 (comment)

Worries:

  1. "QuickCursor is no longer in active development".
  2. Have no idea what needs to be implemented. A quick search gives this and that, but more research is required before making decisions.

That said, nice feature.

Note to text editor authors: if you want to implement the editor side of the ODB editor suite in your product, go right ahead. However, be advised that the specification is subject to change without notice as may be necessary to meet the needs of third-party developers.

From official documentation at http://www.barebones.com/support/develop/odbsuite.html

I haven't looked into it much, but sounds like ODB Editor Suite is in early stage of development? Even though it's been around for a while.
