When the file is opened, the cursor is automatically positioned in the first line and enters the editing mode, which affects the display effect of the first line

Usage
- When a Markdown file is opened, the plugin temporarily removes the editor focus (about 500 ms) to hide the cursor and prevent the first line's style from being affected.
- To immediately show the cursor and start editing, press ArrowDown (โ).
- Focus will return to the editor and the cursor will be placed at the beginning of the first line.
- This is a one-time trigger: it works on the first press after each file open/switch. It resets after you switch or reopen the file.
- If it doesn't take effect, wait ~0.5 s and press it again (the key is ignored while the defocus window is active).
Local Dev
- Clone this repo.
