I have the MS Powershell extension installed in VS Code. Other language extensions, e.g. Python, have the ability to assign a keybinding for creating a new file (python.createNewFile
). I don't see this option in the Powershell extension. There isn't even an option with Ctrl-Shift-P
.
EDIT:Expanding on the Python example, using a keybinding sequence for python.createNewFile
will create a new file that already has Python syntax highlighting defined. I don't have to create the file, then save it with a .py
extension to achieve this. I can get right into the scripting. I'd like to be able to do the same with Powershell.
The only options I have at the moment are to Ctrl + N
, Ctrl + S
, and give it a file name with a .ps1
extension, or Ctrl + N
and choose "Powershell" from the Select a Language
list.
Is there another way to do this? A macro or something? There are other Powershell extensions, but as far as I can tell the only way to know the abilities they provide, is to install each one.
