Remove purple 'bars' from markdown syntax

#1

When I’m writing a markdown (.md) file, sometimes I’ll get large purple bars that fill an entire empty row. It typically occurs when a new empty line is created, but not always. I’d like to remove them altogether. Any ideas on what is creating these and/or how to remove them?

Thanks!

When you do * or other special symbols in a markdown file, you need to space them with a backslash just before them like this \*

The better idea is to wrap code block in code fences or indent them with four spaces.

like so

(with that space on the last line removed)
