[Feature Request] Add support for Octave in Extension Manifest
Hello,
First of all - thank you so much for creating this extension. It helped me enormously during my university years and I am very grateful for the work you put into it.
At that time I could not make it work with Octave, so I created a fork and made a change in the extension manifest so that VS Code would recognize it and use it with Octave.
Now I would have made a pull request to your repository instead of doing it the way I did, but at that time I thought the distinction was intentional.
I would like to retire that extension and allow the people that use it to move to your original extension.
I do not have any way to test it now, but I think the following changes could be made in package.json
:
...
"categories": [
"Other",
+ "Formatters"
],
"keywords": [
"matlab",
+ "octave"
],
"activationEvents": [
"onLanguage:matlab",
+ "onLanguage:octave"
],
...
"languages": [
{
"id": "matlab",
"aliases": [
"MATLAB"
]
},
+ {
+ "id": "octave",
+ "aliases": [
+ "OCTAVE",
+ "Octave"
+ ]
+ }
],
...
Thank you once again for creating this formatter.
Interesting... I also use octave myself instead of matlab. Always interpret *.m as MATLAB in VSCode, so I wasn't even aware that this might be an issue ;)
I'll update the package.json
.
