meme-error

A VS Code extension that reacts when a terminal command fails and shows a random meme-style response based on your selected output mode.

What It Does

• Listens for failed integrated terminal commands (non-zero exit code).
• Shows a random response in the selected mode:
  • text: modal popup with meme-style error text
  • audio: plays a random laugh audio
  • gif: opens a random GIF panel with a Close button

1. Install the extension.
2. Open Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P).
3. Run Meme Error: Select Error Output Mode.
4. Choose one mode: text, audio, or gif.

The extension will trigger automatically.
