ESATAN-TMS — VS Code Language Support

Language support for ESATAN-TMS in Visual Studio Code. Designed for thermal engineers working with ESATAN-TMS models, radiative cases, and analysis decks.

Features

Syntax Highlighting

Language	Extensions	Description
ESATAN	`.d` `.tpl` `.esa` `.data` `.mat` + block files	Thermal model decks, templates, materials
ESATAN GMM	`.gmm` `.tho` `.ci`	Geometry models, thermo-optical, contacts
ESATAN Script	`.erg` `.erk` `.ere`	Geometry, radiative, and analysis scripts
ESATAN Output	`.out`	Solver output (read-only)

Block files: .NODES, .CONDUCTORS, .CONSTANTS, .EXECUTION, .VARIABLES1, .VARIABLES2, .OUTPUTS, .ARRAYS, .LOCALS, .SUBROUTINES, .INITIAL, .EVENTS, .BOUNDARIES

Document Outline (Ctrl+Shift+O)

Navigate your model structure: $MODEL, $NODES, SUBROUTINE, GEOMETRY, OPTICAL, RADIATIVE_CASE, DEFINE_*, and more.

File Icons

25+ color-coded SVG icons for every ESATAN file type. Activate: Ctrl+Shift+P > File Icon Theme > ESATAN-TMS File Icons

Clickable File Links

Ctrl+Click on $INCLUDE paths, FILE='...', working_directory, template_file, and any quoted file path to open the referenced file.

Line-Length Diagnostics

Warns when ESATAN fixed-form lines exceed column 72 (Fortran truncation risk). Skips comments and $INCLUDE lines.

Code Snippets

39 ESATAN + 18 GMM + 11 Script snippets. Type prefix and press Tab: $MODEL, $NODES, GL, GR, solvfm, deck, rect, cyl, defopt, defrcase, defacase, ...

Editor Defaults

Language	Tab	Ruler	Notes
ESATAN	6 sp	72	Fixed-form
GMM	4 sp	—	Free-form
Script	4 sp	—	Free-form
Output	—	105	Read-only
