Can anyone clarify this for me?
QuickCursor works as a productivity booster by taking your favorite text editor and connecting it to any application through a global shortcut. In relation to Markdown, QuickCursor launches a Markdown-supported text editor (e.g. Textmate) and automatically pastes the document into a Markdown previewer (e.g. Marked). Other compatible Markdown editors include MultiMarkdown Composer, Mou, and TextWrangler.
It is from this article: HERE, but I got lost in the description. I use Byword as my QC editor. How do I get QC to "automatically" paste into Marked if I wanted to?

Thanks.

Marked isn't an editor, it's a parser/previewer utility, so you keep your document open in the editor app (Byword, in your case) AND in Marked. Whenever you save changes to your document in the editor, Marked updates and shows the document all updated and rendered nicely.

Not sure about the wording on that description, may have to email AppStorm to ask for clarification myself. 

If you like to type in Byword, but want to preview your rendered Markdown document in Marked, then QC doesn't need to be part of the equation there at all. Just open the document in Byword and in Marked, and type away.

Grey,

Thanks. Yeah, I couldn't understand why the addition of QC was needed nor how it was used. But my work method with Byword and Marked is as you describe.

If you learn more I'd be curious to know.
