The second "Headline" link doesn't work in the Preview.

I couldn't figure out what the actual correct anchor for that headline would be, or if it even also is #headline.

The default anchor mode is github.com, vscode's default preview is not same mode.

Meaning what exactly?

Hi, Markdown-TOC can't support vscode's preview. Because vscode use markdown-it & markdown-it-named-headers to render Markdown. I have no way to distinguish the same header with render result. I had create a issue to vscode. I'm sorry for it, thank you for your understanding.

Tested in current VS Code: the preview now works the same way as github.com. This can be closed.
