An option to see the avr-gcc command being executed

[marcinjahn]

I wish I could see the full command that the extension invokes to run avr-gcc. The extension shows avrdude's command, so it would makse sense to also show how avr-gcc is invoked.

Just an observation, the developer has these logs displayed by VSCode in developer tools ( Help > Toggle Developer Tools > Console) an noted here.

Thanks! That's great that I can see that already. However, opening Chromium Dev Console is a bit weird. It would be nice if avr-helper could log to some "normal" output in VS Code.

Hello!

I can see the following ways to implement it:

• a dedicated output channel for logs (in View>Output panel)
• echo commands directly in the task output terminal (I prefer this one, to be honest)

What do you think would be the better way to display the commands?

Hi @Alex079, I also think the second option is alright, I guess that's how the avrdude output is implemented.

40 still needs some testing
