Use default or installed icon theme in file browser #13

At the moment all files (and dirs) have the same icon, no matter their extensions. It would be nice if your file browser could use icons used by vscode (for example in palette file browser, or tabs) to make search even easier.

Thanks again !

Unfortunately, the VSCode QuickPick API doesn't currently allow that. Believe me, I wish it did.

No news on this front ? Very very nice extension by the way: a must have for me !

Themable codicons is not something being worked on upstream at all, afaik. You could try submitting a feature request.

Thanks for the precision and congrats for your awesome extension.

I have made a custom script that adds icons, here it is: https://gist.github.com/sibbng/57103058c75e7d5dc3f2df84941bc858

Replace VS Code's workbench.html with that.

Windows path: C:\Program Files\Microsoft VS Code\resources\app\out\vs\code\electron-browser\workbench\workbench.html

Note: You have to modify workbench.html after every VS Code update.
