Glorious net highlighting. You wouldn’t believe the trouble I have spelling Receive. I thought this was done before though (an update from the G10 one). Regardless, thanks a lot.

p.s. NP++ >> Sublime

Here’s the obsidian style you can overwrite the plugin’s style with this. This is just to get you started. I had to make some changes and ended up with a style I’m comfortable with.
