Terminal

Run terminal command directly in Text Editor

Notice

From v0.0.4, this extension will have limited updates for bug fix or feature development, because:

1. I have another extension: Code Runner which is superset of the Terminal extension since it not only supports powershell, bat/cmd, bash/sh but also supports other script language like js, php, python, perl, ruby, go, lua, groovy, vbscript even F#, C#. Moreover, this Code Runner extension has more functions (e.g. working directory support, output syntax highlight, run as a file instead of running a set of commands and so on) and will have more supports and updates in the future.

2. VS Code already has basic built-in support for the terminal from v1.2 and add 'run selected text' in v1.3. Besides, the ability to run the entire text of current active text editor will come in v1.5. I have already sent the Pull request and it has been merged.
