Is there actually a hierarchical outliner out there for Windows (or online) that can convert Markdown into an outline based on the headings? I’m writing my text in Markdown in Gingko, but it would be good if I could paste the Markdown text (or its HTML version) into an outliner and the headings would be recognised and the text could be rearranged accordingly.

I could probably export the Markdown from Gingko as HTML, paste into Word, save as RTF, then import into Outline 4D, and do the rearranging there, but that’s just too many steps (though I could do that at the end with the complete text).

At the moment I just wanted a quick visualisation of the overall structure of the developing text, and then maybe promote or demote certain sections and adjust my original accordingly in Gingko.
