Support for vscode-icons #13

Closed 40tude closed 7 years ago

Bonjour I used to compile VSCode myself on Raspberry. However, since version 1.1 it seems I'm no longer able to do it. At the end, I decided to download the deb installer on the site. Everything works like a charm. Thank you very much.

One point that may help others If one want to install vscode-icons extension he must edit the file /usr/share/code-oss/ressources/app/package.json and set the "name" to "Code" (and nothing else) This can be done even if the extension is already installed and no icon show up in the Explorer tab.

Regards, Philippe

Noted.

I've just written this on a few other tickets but I've been toiling away on some changes that will bring all of the build system into the open, and onto Github. There were some technical challenges involved in this, but I've been writing up what's changed for when I get it released (very soon).

Sorry for the lack of recent builds, I promise the wait will have been worth it. :-)

Going to close this one for now as I'm not sure we can be changing the package name to "Code" (as it could cause potentially serious conflicts in side-by-side installation scenarios).

I also kind of wonder if this is something that vscode-icons could be picking up at runtime? (it would mean any other forks/releases would also then be able to use the extension).
