Rewrap Revived

Rewrap Revived is a Visual Studio and VS Code extension that is used to hard-wrap code comments to a configured maximium line length. This is a fork of the unmaintained Rewrap extension by Steve Baker (@stkb).

The main Rewrap command is: Rewrap Comment / Text, by default bound to Alt+Q. With the cursor in a comment block, hit this to re-wrap the contents to the specified wrapping column.

Features

• Re-wrap comment blocks in many languages, with per-language settings.
• Smart handling of contents, including Java-/JS-/XMLDoc tags and code examples.
• Can select lines to wrap or multiple comments/paragraphs at once (even the whole document).
• Also works with Markdown documents, LaTeX or any kind of plain text file.

The contents of comments are usually parsed as markdown, so you can use lists, code samples (which are untouched) etc:

Installation

Rewrap Revived is available in both the Microsoft marketplace and the OpenVSX marketplace.

Please install the pre-release version. That way, you can identify any bugs and report them, so they don't make their way into the stable release. If you do observe a bug, then you can switch to the stable release, and rest assured that the bug will not be introduced there, since you have reported the issue (unless of course, it is already present in both releases).
