fso-table-syntax is a Visual Studio Code extension providing syntax highlighting and embedded Lua support for FreespaceOpen table (.tbl, .tbm) and mission files (.fc2, .fs2). This extension makes working with FreespaceOpen configurations and scripts easier and more efficient by offering clean, intuitive highlighting tailored to the format.
Features
Custom Syntax Highlighting:
Supports sections (#), parent flags ($), child flags (+), and special flags like @Laser.
Highlights constants, operators, strings, and comments.
Embedded Lua Support:
Lua code inside $<flag>: [...] blocks is highlighted and can integrate with the Lua language server for full functionality.
File Icon Support:
Provides a custom file icon for .tbl, .tbm, .fc2, and .fs2 files in the Explorer.
Requirements
Lua Language Server (Optional):
To enable advanced Lua functionality (e.g., IntelliSense, Go to Definition, Peek), install the Sumneko Lua extension in VS Code.
Extension Settings
This extension doesn’t add custom settings but relies on your existing VS Code and Lua language server configurations. Ensure the Lua language server is set up for embedded Lua support.
