Long gone are the days of switching back and forth between editor and console to locate errors. Errors are now highlighted directly on the editor, just hover the highlighted code to see the error message (as given by the compiler).
The extensions verifies files after every file save (not every file change as other extensions do).
Run a FreeST file directly from the editor in VSCode's integrated terminal by right clicking
it and selecting FreeST: Run.
Load a FreeST file directly into FreeST's interpreter (freesti) in VSCode's integrated terminal
by right clicking it and selecting FreeST: Load into interpreter.
Because the extension depends on the freestlspserver executable, independently of your
installation choice, you will have to install the aformentioned executable by hand.
For this, you can either clone this git repository
and follow its instructions, or download and run
this script
using ./install-lsp-server.
