Feature Request: Lua Support

[tjcouch1]

I would love to have a way to do Lua comment regions! I tried to add it myself, but I couldn't get the source code to run while I was debugging in VSCode... I don't have any experience with VSCode extensions or TypeScript, and there were errors that I suppose I needed to fix for the extension to work.

Lua comment regions would work as follows:

--#region Things

function Hello()
  print("Hello")
end

--#endregion

--#region Stuff

function World()
  print("World")
end

--#endregion

I have some things written in extension.ts that might be helpful (they weren't hard, but I might as well include them):

Line 99:
    "markdown",
    "lua"];

Line 133:
private static getLuaStyleRegions() {
        var retval = new RegionText();
        retval.start = "--#region ";
        retval.end = "--#endregion";
        retval.nameInsertionIndex = ImNotQuiteSureWhatThisDoesSoIllLetYouSetIt;
        return retval;

    }

Line 157:
            case "lua":
                return LanguageIdRegionLookup.getLuaStyleRegions();

I imagine there's other stuff you would need to do, but I'll let you figure that out since you actually know what you're doing.

Thanks! This is a great extension, and it would be fantastic with Lua support!

Yes. This should be straightforward. I'll try this out.

I'm implementing this today. It should be available in the next release
