Small Basic for VS Code

Today, I'd like to introduce a VS Code extension for Small Basic syntax highlighting and snippets.

You can download "Small Basic for VS Code" written by alxnull (aka Bluegrams) from Visual Studio Marketplace.

You can see a Small Basic program with syntax highlighting.

Syntax highlighting

And you can also choose snippets while editing Small Basic code.

Have fun coding with "Small Basic for VS Code" !

Thank you alxnull for sharing this fantasic extension.

Task to Compile file!
'{
'   // See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=733558
'   // for the documentation about the tasks.json format
'   "version": "2.0.0",
'   "tasks": [
' {
'   "label": "Small Basic Compiler",
'   "type": "process",
' "command": "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft\\Small Basic\\SmallBasicCompiler.exe",
'   "args": ["${fileBasename}"],
' }
' ]
'}

-> I don't know how to configure the automatic start of the executable file after compilation and without having encountered errors. If anyone knows, please help!

CleberLoch, I also don't know about your question, but this is a nice progress using VSCode for Small Basic, anyway! I could compile my Small Basic program with this tasks.json . Thanks.
