 ### Setup and Initialization
 
-When your plugin is loaded, it's first initialized as a factory function with its first parameter set to `{typescript: ts}`. It's important to use *this* value, rather than the imported `ts` module, because any version of TypeScript might be loaded by tsserver. If you use any other object, you'll run into compatibility problems later because enum values may change between versions. Note below that ts_module is imported *only* for the type annotation.
