Vscode-restclient: Allow query strings spread into multiple lines

[NikosEfthias]

• VSCode Version:1.3.1
• OS Version:ubuntu 16.4
• REST Client Version:0.6.1

Steps to Reproduce:

some queries to api are really lng and writing them in single line is making everything worse
it could be so nice to split parts into lines but when i do this the request wont work

[Huachao]

@NikosEfthias , I am considering this, and since I am busy these days, I will implement this ASAP, sorry for the inconvenience.

[NikosEfthias]

awesome thank you :+1:

@NikosEfthias, when I think about this feature recently, I found that allowing request cross over multiple lines will have a problem that syntax highlight not working. And I think one simple way to this is just word wrap in Visual Studio Code by View->Toggle Word Wrap.

[NikosEfthias]

wordwrap is great but it does not allow you to break from the place you wish

[Huachao]

@NikosEfthias good point, I know your pain, but I am not sure how much value to break as you wish for most people :cry: Could you provide me a scenario?

[NikosEfthias]

as i told a really long get query each part after ? could be in a new line terminated by \ so it could be really easy to editvalues

[Huachao]

@NikosEfthias agree

[NikosEfthias]

at the moment it is really pain to horizontal scroll for changing something and even more difficult when its half of the screen

[Huachao]

@NikosEfthias I'd like to ONLY spread query string into multiple lines
Following requests will be equivalent:

GET https://example.org/items?name=hello&type=world

or

GET https://example.org/items
?name=hello
&type=world

or

GET https://example.org/items
?name=hello&type=world

[NikosEfthias]

GET https://example.org/items
?name=hello
&type=world

this is way more clear

[Huachao]

@NikosEfthias I have
Following requests will be equivalent:
