kmacros

kmacros is a powerful Visual Studio Code extension that provides a set of macros, keybindings, and commands to enhance your coding productivity. This extension is designed for developers who value efficiency and seek to streamline their workflow.

Features

1. HTMLClone

Shortcut: Ctrl + Alt + ]

This command clones the HTML element at the current cursor position.

2. HTMLClone With Increment

Shortcut: Ctrl + Alt + [

Similar to the previous command, this clones the HTML element at the cursor position but also increments any numbers found within the element.

3. Calculate Selected Expression or Flip Booleans

Shortcut: Alt + 0

This versatile command can:

• Evaluate mathematical expressions
• Flip boolean values
• Guess the context from the current line if no text is selected

Examples:

• Selecting Math.cos(0.5) and using the shortcut will output 0.8775825618903728
• Flipping true to false or True to False (case-sensitive)

4. Select All Text in File + Copy to Clipboard

Shortcut: Ctrl + Alt + A (Windows/Linux) or Cmd + Alt + A (Mac)

Selects all text in the current file and then copies it to the clipboard.

Note: This command is very handy for programmers using Large Language Models!

5. Inline Rust Macro Arguments

Shortcut: Ctrl + Alt + I (Windows/Linux) or Cmd + Alt + I (Mac)

This command inlines arguments in Rust macros, making them more readable and concise.

6. Create HuggingFace Link

Shortcut: Ctrl + Alt + H

Generates a HuggingFace download link for the selected text, formatting it as a Markdown link.

7. Remove Comments on Copy

Shortcut: Ctrl + C

This command overrides the default copy behavior. When copying text, it removes comments and can optionally remove whitespace, even in Markdown files (configurable).

• kmacros.showNotifications: Enable/disable notifications from the extension (default: false)
• kmacros.removeCommentsInMarkdown: Remove comments in Markdown files when copying to clipboard (default: false)

You can modify these settings in your VSCode settings.json file or through the Settings UI.
