No pipe support?

[skiz]

Observations

Just tried this out and it would be great.... however we need a few flags and stdio support.

I'm doing some AI training and want to tail my log output with markdown.

pipe support

This is standard *nix operating procedure for chaining tools.

./do_a_thing_that_outputs_slow_md.sh | mdtail --from-start

don't require .md

My log file is a markdown file. it shouldn't matter if it ends in .md

extra flags

--from-start or similar would be useful to ensure that we don't start in the middle of some code block to keep things rocking.

after thoughts

Perhaps I'm using it wrong, but would expect this by default using some lexical parsing on input and dumping pretty outputs as it closes blocks.
