Filter Includes extension

This extension (marketplace link) is basically an automation of this SO answer from 10 years ago. It's probably a bad idea to use this thing.

Features

• Automatically removes header files, keeps the ones necessary to compile!
• Will remove anything you ask it to! (Code! Comments! Documentation!)
• Remembers the previous command you used to build!
• As fast as your build times!

How to use

• Select some lines of text containing your includes
• ctrl+shift+p, select "Filter Includes" command
• It will prompt you for a build command, e.g. make.
• Press enter - don't touch anything! It will try removing includes.

Tips

• If it did break stuff, ctrl+z will work.
• This uses your project as the current directory, so you might use cd build && make as your build command
