In the past I saw somewhere an VSCode plugin what can:
store, list and replay your favorite regex in the right side area of the screen.
the list of regexes can configured in json
I checked all the plugins by keyword 'regex' but I could not find it.
Does somebody know this regex plugin for VSCode ?

Some text editors and IDEs have this feature that LISTS all the occurrences of a string and displays them as a list.
I have Googled this feature for VSCode, but what I got was mostly 'how to SELECT all occurrences'.
What I want is something like this (Notepad++):
One way to get this is to use the bundled ripgrep that comes with VS Code. You can find it under this path inside the folder your VS Code is installed to:
/resources/app/node_modules.asar.unpacked/#vscode/ripgrep/bin/rg
Just open a terminal pane in VS Code with a console of your choice and invoke that ripgrep executable with whatever query is appropriate for the search you want to perform.
You can read more about ripgrep and how to use it on its GitHub page: https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep.
Recently, I had to reinstall windows 11 on my machine. So, after that, I had to install VSCode again (therefore, I have the most recent version of VSCode).
Now, whenever I select any Persian sentences (strings) in my code, the IDE shows a messed-up string that is far away from the correct one. I can not show the correct and incorrect sentences as texts here because copying and pasting results in the correct format. Therefore, I have to provide them as images. (Sorry for any inconvenience, in advance)
Correct Persian Sentence
Incorrect Persian Sentence (After selecting)
This might be a little bit tricky to understand for people who are not familiar with the Persian Language. The difference can be understood by looking at the first word after $creatorId in both images.
This also might happen if we wanted to write in Arabic or other right-to-left languages.
It would be highly appreciated if you could suggest anything to avoid this.
After searching a lot, I found the proper answer on one of the VScode repository's issues. The problem was with the way the new version of VSCode renders the whitespace. So, to solve this problem, you need to follow the below steps:
Open VSCode command pallete by CTRL + SHIFT + p
Search for Open Settings (JSON) and click on it. It should open a JSON file named setting.
In this JSON file, add a key named editor.renderWhitespace and assign on of the following values to it: boundary, trailing or none. Your JSON file should look something like this:
{
"editor.renderWhitespace":"boundary"
}
The weird messed-up string is disapeared now.
Note
You can also access and change the editor.renderWhitespace using the settings editor. So, if you find the steps mentioned above frustrating, just use the settings editor (you can open it using the setting icon at the right end of the VSCode window or even using CTRL + ,) and search for editor.renderWhitespace. Then choose one of the three above-mentioned options.
I am exploring vscode after using atom for a long while. One of the things I'm missing is an equivalent of the lovely package advanced-open-file. Is there something similar to this in vscode?
I found the advanced-new-file extension, but it is only helpful when it comes to new files. I would like to be able to quickly open files from all over my local files (not only the workspace).
Edit: I found the option of workbench.action.quickOpen; but it doesn't allow opening files from the whole file system.
Sorry, but currently the answer is no. The problem is that input box doesn't provide a way to listen to key events:
GitHub issue,
so even the extensions can't do that currently. Here's the comment from advanced-new-file extension creator:
Because VSCode extensions don't yet have the ability to do type-ahead autocomplete within the text input box (See https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/426), we work around this limitation and provide autocomplete using a two-step workflow of selecting existing path, then providing new filename/path relative to the selection.
The good news is that there is a new API addressing this issue, but it's currently in 'proposed' state and can't be used for published extensions.
One workaround could be typing code -r some/path in integrated terminal and using 'tab' for autocomplete.
The Fuzzy search extension seems to work for me.
It adds a new action to the command palette which allows you to search for files in the current project and open them.
I've auto-complete and auto-complete+ installed on the latest version of Atom. Unfortunately, these packages don't auto-complete or suggest words while typing plain text as open office or some sublime packages do.
For instance, if I am typing repo and the word repository already appears in the current document, I would like to have some sort of auto-completion / intellisense to show up.
I looked, in vain, for package in atom achieving that.
So, the question is, do you know any package to do that in atom or any intuitions on how to create it ?
Thanks.
Actually the autocomplete-plus package should do exactly what you want. By default it looks in the current document, but you can enable "Include completions from all buffers" to get completions from all open buffers.
A few suggestions why it does not work:
Make sure "Enable built-in provider" is activated in the autocomplete-plus settings
The package let's you choose between two "Default Providers", Fuzzy and Symbol. Try both (for me Symbol works fine)
Make sure the file type you use does support autocompletion and is not blacklisted, see this question for details
Maybe the autocomplete package interferes with autocomplete-plus. Try disabling or uninstalling autocomplete
In Eclipse you can jump to definition/declaration by clicking on hyperlinks with pressing command key (control for Windows). I would like to use the same functionality for Sublime Text 3. Mostly I work with Robot Framework with a lot of files and would like to jump to the source of Keyword through whole project.
In sublime this kind of feature is provided by plugins.
Look at https://sublime.wbond.net/packages/Robot%20Framework%20Assistant or https://sublime.wbond.net/packages/Robot%20Framework, but be aware you can't use both, they conflict.
This plugin allows you to jump from .txt (.robot) files to the keyword's definition in .py and in .txt (.robot) in case they are resource files. Please read more here: https://github.com/andriyko/sublime-robot-framework-assistant
You can add below two plugins in pycharm, it will then allow you to navigate.
