Include more plugins

[lucasvieites]

Hi there,
I'm not sure I'm in the right place, but I haven't found a better one.
I'd like to now how to request that a specific plugin be included in the osx package. I've tried compiling it myself, but I lack the permissions on my company-issued laptop.
The specific plugin I'd like to have is Markdown, for which I now have to use Atom.
I hope that you can help me with this.

Thank you in advance,
Lucas Vieites

The problem is that the Markdown plugin uses WebKitGtk which doesn't seem to compile on macOS.

It's available for macports, though it doesn't look straightforward to compile.

@techee Thank you for your quick reply. I wasn't aware that this component wasn't available on macos.
@codebrainz Indeed, I did a little research after @techee replied, and it looks like a dependency hell to compile.

I've been thinking of setting up a build command for .md files and run that from Geany, then preview it in a browser.
Thanks again,
Lucas Vieites

Yeah, I haven't been using macports but gtk-osx where I basically build everything by myself (with the necessary patches from gtk-osx). But it's not that well maintained and maybe I should give macports a try and investigate how I could create an app bundle using it.
