Back & Forth

This small extension for VSCode adds go back/forward buttons to the title bar for easier navigation through recent edit locations and opened files.

They do the same as these default shortcuts:

Command	Keybindings (Windows)	Keybindings (Mac)	Keybindings (Linux)
Go back	Alt + ←	Ctrl + -	Ctrl + Alt + -
Go forward	Alt + →	Ctrl + Shift + -	Ctrl + Shift + -
Go to the last edit location	Ctrl + K Ctrl + Q	Ctrl + K Ctrl + Q	Ctrl + K Ctrl + Q

How it works

Settings

Name		Options	Default
back-n-forth.iconStyle	Changes type of icons	"arrow" / "chevron"	"arrow"
back-n-forth.withLastEditLocation	Adds "Go to the Last Edit Location" icon	true / false	false
