Parse files, prepare completion data and store them in .datapack folder.
Only need to use it when you found that there are some problems completing functions/tags/objectives/teams/advancements names, and those data would be updated when there are file changes.

Key: Ctrl+Alt+O
Open an file based on its name, and create if it does not exist.

Evaluate Js expression:
Key: Ctrl+E
A range(start=0, end, step=1): Array<number> is provided, which is similar to the range function in python.
If the result is an array, it would join the array into lines and replace the code with those lines. Otherwise, the code would be replaced directly by its result (to string). If the result is a number but not an integer, 5 decimals would be kept.

Will reserve the first one met in the sequence, so the order won't change.
