Configuration

There are many configuration settings for the Rocket MV BASIC extension. These settings are organized into different configuration files.

Press F1 to open the command window and then enter the "Edit Configuration of Rocket MV BASIC" command.

There are three configuration files: "Database and BASIC Related Configuration", "Formatting Configuration" and "Group View Configuration".

If there are multiple workspace folders, you can select the folder to edit. Configuration files in different workspace folders have no relationship or dependency.

The configuration file name is "db.mvbasic.json".

Following relevant configurations are included:
