language-mplus README

A syntax highlither for Mplus input and output files.

Features

It highlights Mplus code.

Task

Add a build task to be able to automatically run mplus in the built-in VS Code terminal.

Click on Terminal -> Configure Tasks and copy and paste the build task below:

{
    // See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=733558
    // for the documentation about the tasks.json format
    // See https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/variables-reference
    // for variable reference
    "version": "2.0.0",
    "tasks": [
        {
            "label": "Run Mplus",
            "type": "process",
            "command": "mplus",
            "args": ["${fileBasename}"],
            "options": {
                "cwd": "${fileDirname}"
            },
            "group": {
                "kind": "build",
                "isDefault": true
            }
        }
    ]
}

Just make sure to point to the actual mplus executable path in this line: "command": "mplus",.

Keep in mind that mplus should add itself to the path when installing it. If you run into problems with it, make sure to replace mplus with the actual path to the binary file.
