Formatting
Sometimes, you may want the code to be formatted according to a different language than the file
association
(*.js, *.c, *.html, etc) suggests. For example, you might have HTML code in string in a javascript file
and
you want to auto-format that code.
settings.json:
"files.associations": {
"*.js": "html"
}
Associating several languages with the same file extension does not cause an error, but does not seem to
have
the desired effect
"*.js": ["html", "js"]
global search
https://www.reddit.com/r/vscode/comments/n4m8sn/global_search_is_only_searching_in_opened_files/
When you hit cmd+shift+f in vscode for global search, there should be 3 fields:
the search field at the top,
the "files to include" field in the middle, and
the "files to exclude" field at the bottom.
In the "files to include" field on the right side there is an open book icon. Clicking the book icon
toggles
between searching all files and searching only open files. Hope that helps.
