User reviews

Doesn’t import the only file format it recognizes

According to the software, the user is to compile to MMD in Scrivener. I tried that. Numerous times. Since the dev didn’t specify whether it’s basic MMD, or MMD/Latex or MMD/OpenOffice or the other options Scrivener suggests, I decided to try them all after Bartleby refused to see the file with .md suffix. MMD/Latex was ignored. Same for MMD/OpenOffice. Strike Three! To the trash bin.
