[MlMt] Two questions

I an a fairly new user so I apologize if the answers to this question 
are obvious, but I searched this mailing list and the issue tracker and 
could find only one somewhat related thread that didn’t help me.

**TL;DR** I need help getting Mermaid syntax and finding out how some of 
the bundles should be used.  BTW I seem to be using a pre-release 
somehow, Build 5937, so maybe that is an issue?

### Mermaid integration

The TeXMath bundle works really well:

~~~math
\int x\, \text{d}x = \frac{1}{2} x^2 + C
~~~

But when I try Mermaid like this,

```
~~~mermaid
graph LR
	A —> B
		B —> C
~~~
```

I get an orange message above the header that says
```
Bundle command failed (event: generate_diagram)
Explanation			Unable to reach output
				format type (discard !=html)
```

I have mermaid-cli installed on my Mac, and I can generate Mermaid 
graphics from the command line using exactly that same syntax, so I’m 
not sure what is going wrong.

### Documentation or How-To’s for bundles
For example, I use Fantastical and so I checked the Fantastical item 
under Settings:Bundles.  But I’m not exactly sure what this enables me 
to do.  If I select an email and then run the Fantastical:Create Event 
command under the Commands menu, it definitely creates a new event in 
Fantastical, and the event has the title of the message subject, and a 
date/time of when the message was received.  That makes me wonder what 
use case I could have for that.  I can go to the GitHub page for the 
bundle but the documentation is pretty sparse.
