It would be great is Marked 2 supported the Github API as a custom processor the same way the ST package Markdown Preview does. Marked itself gets pretty close but does a couple of things differently. Marked, for example, uses embeds javascript to highlight code whereas github formats the HTML in the conversion process and uses css to highlight the html.

   another example: github formats the ids of headings differently. Using the github API would just create 100% compatibility.

   Using the Github API is too slow to provide satisfactory results, and
   you run into size limits. You can easily set it up as a custom
   processor, though. Either through the API:
   http://developer.github.com/v3/markdown/ or with Docter:
