termin-all-or-nothing
This extension (primarily written to solve this problem)
does its best to prevent your vscode editor from ever becoming a cyborg
(half editor, half terminal). Any time that split can occur, this extension
either fully opens or fully closes the terminal.
Setup
The extension should start working automatically after installation.
It is also recommended to update your preferred keyboard
binding (in keybindings.json) for panel toggling to use the
VS Code command
workbench.action.toggleMaximizedPanel (as opposed to
workbench.action.togglePanel) to ensure that you
are always fully opening or closing the panel. For example,
{
"key": "ctrl+t",
"command": "workbench.action.toggleMaximizedPanel"
},
All-or-Nothing Cases
There are many ways that a terminal/editor can be opened in VS Code. This
extension has considered the following cases:
Open from File Explorer
Opening via both single-click and double-click works.
Open from Command Prompt
Ctrl+click on file reference from terminal
Running code new-file.txt from the integrated terminal
If there are any other cases you'd like this extension to consider, please
open an issue for it.
