Vscode: Footer bar: add number of selected lines

Created on 2 Dec 2015  路  5Comments  路  Source: microsoft/vscode

Footer shows:

Ln 10, Col 11 (123 selected)

It would be cool if it shows something like:

Ln 10-21, Col 11 (123 chars, 12 lines selected)

Right?

@bpasero sure, extension is a solution, however this is a generic information. For many developers it's a way more useful information than selected chars count. As such imho it has to be out of the box.

It's useful when you want to tell how much LoC are in method that you're looking at.

This can and should be provided from an extension.
