Font Rough extension for VSCode (Mac OSX Only)

DISCLAIMER: The main reason of this extension is due the extreme laziness of Fulvio Venturelli - in italian we have a specific term for that, it's PESACULO.

This extension is a dirty hack to permit the usage of fonts on OSX (such terminus) that doesn't need antialiasing, patching the application's main css file.

Althought this could be done manually, at every VSCode update the changes are lost: this extension ensure those changes are re-applied automatically in such cases.

See: microsoft/vscode#2577

Requirements

Due the nature of the CSS property used, it works only on Mac OS X.

Extension Settings

None so far.

Known Issues

VSCode is smart enough to recognize that the extension tampered its core files, so it will show a message box the first time, and "[Unsupported]" in the title bar.
