Features

The following features are exclusively available for files with the .rev and .Rev extensions.

Syntax Highlighting

RevSyntax automatically applies syntax highlighting to your RevBayes code.

You can customize the color theme used for syntax highlighting through Visual Studio Code's preferences: File > Preferences > Theme > Color Theme.

Send to Terminal

RevSyntax integrates a "Send to Terminal" functionality, similar to that found in R language support extensions.

First, run revbayes in a VScode terminal, then you will be able to send highlighted code to the terminal with (Ctrl+Enter or Cmd+Enter).

( Note: The extension can still send code to the terminal even if RevBayes is not running. Make sure you've launched RevBayes to avoid unexpected behavior ).
