Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When debugging Go code, long string variables are rendered as a single escaped
line (\n
, \t
, etc.)
This makes multi-line content, like templated Go code hard to read and reason about
Describe the solution you'd like
Add a context-menu command like “View string as document…” for string variables.
Selecting it would:
- Open the value in a new editor tab
- Show real line breaks instead of escape sequences
- Let the user pick a language mode so built-in syntax highlighting applies
Describe alternatives you've considered
- Expanding the inline viewer: still shows escaped characters and wrecks layout
- Copy-pasting into a new file: slow and breaks debugging flow
- External pretty-print tools: require context switching and lose debugger context
- Add functions to render files in FS
