An add-on to the vscode extension LaTeX Workshop that provides some fancy features that are less vital to the basic experience editing a LaTeX document, but can be rather nice to have. The feature should continue to expand at a gradually decreasing rate.

Requirements

• A LaTeX installation in your path
• The texcount script (only necessary for the word-count function). Configure using the latex-utilities.countWord.path and latex-utilities.countWord.args settings.
  • Alternatively, install the texcount package from your TeX package manager (e.g., tlmgr) if it doesn't come with your TeX distribution.

Telemetry

Why

As a bunch of fancy, but non-essential features, it can be hard to know what features users actually derive value from. In adding telemetry to this extension I hope to get an idea of this, and inform future development efforts. It should also be possible to report errors in the background, and so I also hope this extension will be more stable as a result.

At the moment I'm just logging when one of the main features is used.

TLDR; I want to get around the 1% rule

I hate telemetry, go away!

You probably have disabled vscode's telemetry.enableTelemetry then, in which case no telemetry is done.
