Windows lnk

Open the original file of the Windows shortcut(.lnk) file. If the file is not a file to be included in the project directory, but is a data file to be used in the project, you may want to edit it frequently.

Usage

Copy the .lnk file from outside the project directory into your project using Windows Create shortcut feature. Automatically opens the file no matter which directory it is in. Don't forget to include the .lnk file in .gitignore.

Limit

Currently, only files that can be edited by vcode are supported, and sadly binary files and folders are not supported😭. The folder will be opened in a new window later or added to workspace.
