Opening Files
Marked gives you options.

Drag to Dock Icon
The easiest way to use Marked on a file you’re already editing is to drag the document icon from the toolbar of your editor or from Finder to the Marked icon in your Dock. Marked will immediately start tracking any Markdown file (or text file) dropped on it. You can also drag files directly from the Finder.
Using the Menu
You can, of course, open Markdown files directly using the (⌘+O) menu option. Marked works fine without a text editor, too. You can preview and convert your Markdown with just a click.
From the Clipboard
If you have compatible (e.g. Markdown) text in your clipboard, you can open an instant preview by selecting (⇧+⌘+V). If you copied a selection from a web browser or other app that put HTML or RTF on the clipboard, Marked converts it to Markdown for preview. When you paste RTF from an app like TextEdit or Pages, larger font sizes are roughly converted to heading levels (e.g. very large text becomes a level 1 heading, smaller large text becomes level 2, and so on). You can have multiple clipboard previews open at once, and you can save them to a new file by choosing .
Creating a New Document
Marked allows you to create a new, empty text file with the (⌘+N) command. It will immediately ask you for a location to save the file, and you can enable the “Edit new files automatically” option in the , next to the Text editor button to automatically open the newly-created file in your default editor.
Open Recent
Marked keeps track of recent documents, too. The menu option will show you the files you”ve had open and let you jump back to them. You can quickly re-open the last file you were viewing with ⇧+⌘+R. There are a lot of other keyboard shortcuts, too. If you care to learn them, you can find a chart under Keyboard Shortcuts.
Quick Open
You can quickly switch between open documents, open recent documents, or open the File->Open dialog with the Quick Open panel (⇧+⌘+O).
