[DEPRECATED] Visual Studio Code LaTeX-Workshop_sanity Extension

This fork is no longer maintained. Please use texlab with the rich syntax highlighting of latex-syntax. The latter contains the highlighting improvements in this package.

Notes on this fork

This fork of “LaTeX Workshop”

a) has auto-rubbish disabled: snippets whose mere function is to mess up your work by inserting extra characters have been removed. Only those that include auto-completion of citations/references/file names have been retained.

b) always refreshes the PDF at current cursor location, even if latexmk did not need to do anything. This is to avoid git-like nuts and bolts masochism in the UI.

c) Adds syntax highlighting support for the todonotes package; fixes comment package to highlight the comment environment contents as a comment block.

I use Mercurial to access this repository (git is expressly designed for shooting your feet off and being happy about it), so forget about history-rewriting garbage-collecting rebase nonsense if you want to work with me. Only plain old history-preserving merges.

Regarding todonotes support

To enable syntax highlighting for \todo, add the following to your settings.json:

"editor.tokenColorCustomizations": {
    "textMateRules": [
        {
            "scope": "entity.name.todo.latex",
            "settings": {
                "foreground": "#bd7829",
                "fontStyle": "italic",
            }
        },
        {
            "scope": "support.function.todo.latex",
            "settings": {
                "foreground": "#bd7829",
                "fontStyle": "italic",
            }
        }
    ],
}
