You can turn off the automatic opening of the browser. Just change the default configuration of instantmarkdown.autoOpenBrowser from true to false.

You can then use > Instant Markdown: Open Browser to open the broswer or create a shortcut for the following command instantmarkdown.openBrowser.

You can turn off the automatic closing of the browser. Just change the default configuration of instantmarkdown.autoCloseServerAndBrowser from true to false.

You can also change the host and port that the server runs on by changing their respective default settings.
