Thanks.
Is it possible to extend this extension to run ROOT macro from inside VS code?
See the following scenario:

  • edit hsimple.C macro
  • press F5 to run macro or “Run->Start Debugging”
    which invoke root.exe -l -q hsimple.C
  • after macro execution a new tab is created with hsimple.root content

ROOT allows to set breakpoints inside a macro and step-by-step execution,
so it would be good to add key bindings:

  • F9 - toggle breakpoint
  • F10 - step execution

I also want to have possibility compile, compile&execute macro.
