Some old programs were written by python2. This extension Support python2 code edit, debug, format. Semantic highlighting is not currently supported.
Modification
This extension is mainly based on ms-python.python tag2021.9.1246542782。Use old version python extension to support python2. Use old version open source jedi language server(0.17.2) instead of pylance.
We also made a Kylin Python(with jedi language server) extension to support python3. We deal with the conflictions between python3 and this(python2) extensions. You can view the python version in the status bar at the lower right corner. Click the version and the python interpreter will be displayed on the command line. Select python3 to switch to the python3 extension.(Although you have the ability to switch versions, to prevent problems, it is recommended that you manually disable other Python extension and reload the window.)
Support the launch.json template. You can click the Add configuration button when editing the launch
To prevent potential extension conflicts, users are advised to manually disable other Python extensions when utilizing this extension.
