I'm looking for a plugin that will display me the text of HTML files in QuickLook rather than a preview of the rendered HTML.
Does anyone know of such a plugin?

qlcolorcode didn't display HTML files by default on my installation of 10.8. I could get it to display them by adding public.html
and public.xhtml
to CFBundleDocumentTypes:LSItemContentTypes
in ~/Library/QuickLook/QLColorCode.qlgenerator/Contents/Info.plist
and logging out and back in.
You could also remove /System/Library/QuickLook/Web.qlgenerator/
, but it also handles webarchive
and svg
files. Removing the entries for public.html
and public.xhtml
from the Info.plist
didn't seem to work.
I had to get rid of the Web.qlgenerator to make this work, using either the QLColorCode or the QLStephen plugins, in OSX Mavericks.
