26.03.2024Relatively useless plugin since it doesn't work as intended. This plugin will only realistically work for synchronized applications. The main point of trying it out for me, was to automatically rerun a server every time its code is edited in its relative package.
The major problem is that you cannot see the console, even when set to "Show console: Always". The execution has to finish to be able to see the console, and that is a bit stupid.
