FAQ

Why isn't it appearing in the Status Bar?

Perhaps, this extension is not included in your current profile. Run the command Profiles: Show contents... to check.

The item may have been forced out (not enough room), or it is hidden/disabled! Right-clicking on the status bar shows a complete list of status bar items, and shows if they are enabled or not. You can disable other items if the status bar is crowded.

Does this extension support multi-root workspaces?

No, I do not use them!

If you would like support added, raise an issue to request the feature.

Does this support remote or Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)?

This extension looks in the local file system for the global state in a file called storage.json. This may not be available when you are working remotely, or in WSL. I do not use VS Code in this way, so I do not know how it is exactly! If you have a suggestion to support these environments, let me know.
