Color Me Error

This extension will color any occurrences of TODO and FIXME (configurable) as errors when found in text. Word will be highlighted only when found with non-letter character on each side.

Extension will parse only visible text and thus should be fast even on large or remote files.

Extension Settings

This extension contributes the following settings:

• colorMeError.words: List of words that will be colored as error.

Default Configuration

"colorMeError.words": [
    "TODO",
    "FIXME",
]

Known Issues

Not Coloring For Large Files

For performance reasons Visual Studio Code doesn't synchronize files that are over 5MB in size (see issue 27100). Therefore, no coloring will be visible on large files. To avoid this you can set editor.largeFileOptimizations to false.
