Description

Just came across this app, works ideally on my machine without dependencies.

One nice thing that vim-ghost does is automatically switching to nvim when you hit the ghost button in your browser (https://github.com/raghur/vim-ghost#auto-switching-to-vim).

Would be nice to have the same functionality in this plugin.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study how vim ghost implements auto switching and adapt it for nvim ghost.nvim. Focus on detecting the GhostText browser extension and launching Neovim.
