## Requirements
|
|
|
|
* Visual Studio Code version >= 1.40.0. Legacy versions may also work.
|
|
* A latest version of GNU Texinfo.
|
|
|
|
## Extension Settings
|
|
|
|
See `File -> Preferences -> Settings -> Extensions -> Texinfo` for details. The settings are self-explanatory.
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
* If syntax highlighting is not satisfactory, try another color theme (e.g. Solarized Light/Dark, Monokai) where keyword/operator colors are distinct.
|
|
* Preview content is updated on document save rather than document change, as Texinfo documents tend to be rather large, and incremental conversion is not yet supported.
|
|
* For macOS users: Preinstalled GNU Texinfo distribution is very old. Use a latest one instead. This can be easily done by `brew install texinfo` and change extension setting `texinfo.makeinfo` value.
|
|
|
|
## Future Plans
|
|
|
|
* Implement [Language Server Protocol](https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol) for the Texinfo language, preferably by extending GNU Texinfo, to alleviate the limitations of the current implementaion.
