ninmonkey / Get Vscode cli.js Source mapping.ps1

Created August 30, 2024 16:25

View the Source Code for VsCode's luancher. It shows the not-minified version of "C:\Program Files\Microsoft VS Code\resources\app\out\cli.js"

	<#
	see also:

	Cli and bootstrap files in: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/tree/main/src
	You could grep the tree for the Env vars it uses

	Using this syntax prevents accidentally launching code (the native command) with a broken filepath. Like if you missed quotes.
	otherwise it'll try to make it.
