Description
I like having MacDown as a Markdown editor open side by side with Marked 2 showing a preview. It would be great if I can launch my preferred external preview tool from within Macdown and disable the internal preview.

Research direction
The issue names MacDown's internal preview, an external preview tool, and Marked 2, but no files or tests. Begin by locating the preview and preference entry points, then determine how an external tool should be launched and how disabling the internal preview should work. Done means a preferred external preview can be launched from MacDown while the internal preview can be disabled.
