LPJ-GUESS Instruction (.ins) File Support for Visual Studio Code

This folder contains a minimal VS Code language extension for LPJ-GUESS instruction files (*.ins).

What It Highlights

• ! line comments (including inline comments)
• Directives: import, include, param, group, pft, st, mt, file, column
• Assignment keys at start of lines (e.g. ifdailygrass, npatch)
• Strings in single or double quotes
• Numeric literals (integers, floats, scientific notation)
• Parentheses/brackets

Install Locally (from this repo)

npm install --save-dev @vscode/vsce
npx @vscode/vsce package

# This will create a .vsix file, which you can install in VS Code:
code --install-extension lpj-ins-0.0.1.vsix # Adjust filename as needed

Notes

• This is a syntax grammar only (no validation/linting).
• If needed, additional keyword classes can be added in syntaxes/lpj-ins.tmLanguage.json.
