Using Language Server for Robot Framework Support Plugin. #92

@AmailP There is a new development going on that could improve your Plugin a lot.

RoboCorp is developing a Robot Framework Language Server in Cooperation with Pekka Klärck.

This LSP could be used in your Plugin. It uses the real parser of RobotFramework and shows detect syntax errors. So there would be no need to parse anything on your own. Also Intellisense for static and dynamic libraries like SeleniumLibrary are available. Also Go To Definition into the python works as well.

It is still in development, but you may want to have a look.

Please contact me if you have any questions. I would be happy if you would decide to use the lsp in your nice plugin.

Kind Regards René

Ps: in the Robot Framework Slack channel there is also a place to discuss #lsp
