Ability to run multiple MATLAB terminals #121

Open Titas22 opened 3 months ago

Titas22 commented 3 months ago

I tend to use multiple MATLAB instances to be able to run multiple blocking codes at the same time, this is fairly simple in MATLAB where I can simply open multiple instances.

In VSCode, when I try to open a new MATLAB terminal, it seems to be reusing the old MATLAB instance and replacing the previous terminal.

I don't see a way to open multiple VSCode instances for the same project (nor would it be a good solutions when all I'm looking for is a terminal).

Is there already a way or could an option be added to allow creating a new MATLAB terminal instances and attach it to a new MATLAB process?

Thanks for the feedback! This is definitely something we will consider including in a future release.
