Scratchpads README

Create multiple scratchpad files for doodling while you're coding.

NOTE: Version 1.0.0 and above, please review the changelog for breaking changes before upgrading

Highlights

• Create multiple scratchpads
• Create scratchpads of different languages and file types (based on https://github.com/blakeembrey/language-map)
• Enjoy VSCode intellisense in your scratchpads
• Scratchpads are not interfering with your project / source control and can be removed at any time

Available Commands

• Scratchpads: New scratchpad
• Scratchpads: New scratchpad (default)
• Scratchpads: Open scratchpad
• Scratchpads: Rename scratchpad
• Scratchpads: Open latest scratchpad
• Scratchpads: New filetype
• Scratchpads: Remove scratchpad
• Scratchpads: Remove all scratchpads
  Removing all scratchpad files loops through all the open tabs and closes the scratchpad ones before deleting the files (might seem weird)

Keyboard Shortcuts

You can find instructions on adding shortcuts to the commands above on VSCode website.
