You can trigger IntelliSense in any editor window by typing Ctrl+Space or by typing a trigger character (such as the dot character (.)
You can launch the command input by Ctrl + Shift + P , then type 'new window' and you will see the result File: Open active tab in a new window , and select it.
let name = prompt("what is your name"); prompt() (docs)would get you the name prompt and store the input as the script is running in the terminal. so write your script let's say something like: nameProgram.
This is the editor.action.showHover command. It is bound to cmdk cmdi by default.
Note: Shortcut works by holding down the cmd [ctrl in windows], then while holding press k then i
You can change the keyboard shortcut with a keybinding such as:
{ "key": "cmd+k ctrl+space", "command": "editor.action.showHover", "when": "editorTextFocus" } The default shortcut for Trigger Parameter Hints is Ctrl+Shift+Space
