Topic: visual studio code...

Hi,

Visual Studio Code looks like a nice tool, I use studio + viuemu or gvim.
If there's a market for it, perhaps you should consider providing viemu support for VS Code?

I would subscribe for it, I wonder if other existing users would be keen?

Re: visual studio code...

I got a number of requests for this. ViEmu for VS Code would be awesome, but it is a completely different environment from VS, and porting ViEmu would be a huge undertaking - the vi/vim emulation core is about 50% of the codebase, whereas the host environment integration is the other 50%, often nail-bitingly complicated. Unfortunately the business case is too thin. I'm sure someone else will tackle or has tackled that challenge!
