Status Bar Sample

This is a sample extension that adds a status bar entry showing the current number of selected lines.

It is not intended as a product quality extension.

Open a text editor
Select some lines
See the number of selected lines in the status bar

How it works, what it shows?

The extension implements and registers a StatusBarItem to show the number of selected lines.
The extension listens to events when the active text editor changes to keep the number of selected lines up to date.
Registers a command via package.json that will show the number of selected lines as message
