If there is a bug, please raise an issue.
I consider this extension feature complete. You are welcome to raise an issue and make a suggestion, but I am unlikely to implement more features.
You can show your appreciation by:
- Buying me a coffee or sponsoring me
- Leaving a positive review in the visual studio marketplace.
- Starring the repo 🌟.
This will help other people find the extension.
It will offer me encouragement to continue, and can provide a path to dedicating more time to open-source in the future.
Thank you! 🙏
On a crowded status bar, the Marky Stats may have been forced out! You can test this by zooming out, so the text becomes very small, and you will see more items on the status bar.
Go to the User Settings, and hide or disable other status bar items to make space.
