Description

When switching to normal mode, let the input method automatically switch to English mode.
When I use Chinese input, switch to normal mode, and then move the cursor or input commands will output Chinese, I have to switch the input mode to English mode. When this operating becomes frequent, it will be annoying to switch the input mode again and again.
