So another vscode extension for the AutoIt language emerges! I've tried the existing ones, and found small problems that i felt i could improve on, but it would require an entire new approach to the inner working of the existing extensions. Also working on a complete AutoIt3 parser a vscode extension just made sense Any feedback is appreciated, and i hope this project will benefit more than just me 🤡 Visual Studio Code Marketplace GitHub repo Some of the current features: Basic AutoIt2 syntax highlighting, for fun 🤡 AutoIt3 syntax highlighting Variable/Function hover gives declaration information if available. Goto declaration #include links Syntax checking, as you type Function signature help Function and variable list in a file via the outline tab. Works on desktop (any OS) and web version ⚠️ The parser used is not yet 100% complete (see issues for know problems), and the last thing to be implemented is the With code block. Hope you like 😃

I use Autoit plagin from Damien in VS Code When I press Shift + Alt + F I got message: There is no formatter for autoit And there is no extention when I searh category:formatters autoit

When I press F5 in VS Code for Autoit code, the script is restarted and all logs from the bottom OUTPUT console disappear Prohibiting the launch of only one copy of the script does not help, still in OUTPUT are written logs for a new attempt to run, and the old running script disappears, although it continues to run. Is it possible to return to the logs of the first running script so that it also writes everything it does in OUTPUT ?

Have downloaded and installed AutoIt and AutoIt Script Editor also I installed plugin AutoIt Damien I can run scripts by pressing the F5 But If I try Run->Run Without Debugging or Run->Start Debugging I have an error You don't have an extension for debugging autoit How I can fix this or how can I run the autoit from the VS code menu ?

Hi folks, personally, I felt it always unclean or simply ugly to include whole UDFs into his script or project, in cases where you need only individual functions from it. The fact that the *.exe gets larger when compiling is often no longer a problem these days or you just don't mind it anymore - I, on the other hand, do somehow 😅 . That's why I used to take the individual functions from the UDFs into my script so that I didn't have to include the entire UDF (#include). Depending on the license, I have recorded the attribution of the UDF creators or the contributors in the credits or similar to keep it fair. Then the change came: I got to know Visual Studio Code (VSCode) professionally, first for other languages, then also for AutoIt. With VSCode's rapidly improving and nowadays very powerful IntelliSense (code completion) I got an idea. Easy and fast: I store functions that I often need or have in some (own) UDFs in snippet files and can quickly insert them into the respective script or project if required. But it's important to me that I can access the functions contained in the snippets from anywhere - on my private computer, at work or at a colleague's/friend's. So I created a VSCode Extension 😀 . VSCode-AutoItSnippets: If you also implement your AutoIt projects with VSCode, then my AutoIt Snippets Extension might interest you or even help you to implement your projects faster. I would be very happy if you could take a look at the project. Of course, I'm interested in your opinion on this as well as whether one or the other would like to share their function(s) and would also like to have them immortalized in the extension 🧐 . If this should be interesting for you, then you are welcome to add your functions via pull request, or just write them here so I can include them in the snippet files, or you write with a private message or email. I'm curious if this can be helpful for you, because there are already over 500 installations of the extension, which makes me happy 😁 . This is how it looks in practice/in use: https://github.com/Sven-Seyfert/VSCode-AutoItSnippets#features Best regards Sven ________________ Stay innovative!
