[Feature request] Shell expansion in "args"

[ktrarai]

debugpy and VS Code support "Shell expansion" if "args" is not an array but a string:

https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-python-debugger/issues/309#issuecomment-2048181290

But I've got this message with a option :args "<in.txt" for Dape:

* Invalid message: Shell expansion in "args" is not supported by the client *

I will appreciate this feature would be supported.

By the way, now I insert a code like the following in a debuggee python source to redirect to a file:

import sys
sys.stdin = open('in.txt', 'r')

This is inconvenient. Is there a way without having to edit the debuggee?

Thanks.

Hey, have not tested extensively but with commit referenced above it should work for debugpy, note that you have to use dape from master until a new version is released.

Please reopen the issue if it doesn't work for you!
