Show HN: VS Code extension to edit the filesystem like a text buffer

3 points by hexomancer 11 hours ago

This is a spiritual adaptation of oil.nvim for vscode. The main idea is you edit the filesystem by editing the current directory listing's text buffer. For example, if I want to rename a file, I just rename it in the listing file. This is extremely powerful because it translates all of your text-editing skills immediately into file editing capabilities.

Some features:

* Create/rename/move/delete files by editing the current directory listing's textbuffer

* Filter using glob pattern

* Trash and undo support

* Works even in remote-ssh workspaces

* Works across multiple vscode windows
