Easy Paste (zartash-nabeel)

Easy Paste is a Visual Studio Code extension that helps you quickly write content into a file in your workspace — without manually searching or opening the file. You can type your content or paste it from the clipboard using a simple UI.


✨ Features

  • 🔍 Search for files by name in the root folder or all subfolders.
  • ✍️ Choose between manual text input or pasting from your clipboard.
  • 📄 Automatically writes to the file if found; lets you pick if multiple matches exist.
  • 🌗 Supports both dark mode and light mode in the interface.
  • ✅ Visual feedback on success or errors.

✅ How to Use

  1. Open the command palette (Ctrl+Shift+P / Cmd+Shift+P).
  2. Search for “Open File Writer UI” and run it.
  3. Fill in the file name and root folder path.
  4. Choose whether to search in subfolders and how to provide content.
  5. Click “📤 Write to File”.

That's it! The extension finds the file and writes your content automatically.
