(PYLANCE/C++/...) Patch Microsoft extensions not working on VSCode Forks (VSCodium / Cursor / etc.)

Patcher for Microsoft Extensions

This script works for patching any Microsoft VSCode extension so it will work on it's forks including:

  • VSCodium
  • Cursor
  • Windsurf

This discussion motivated me to make this simple script: VSCodium#1641
Currently tested only on Pylance/VSCodium but as long as it's Microsoft's extension that blocks VSCode forks, it should be fine. The code uses fairly generic patterns to ensure it's cross-compatible with other extensions than the one I tested!

Make Firefox fast again
// Put this in a separate .h file (called "getopt.h").
// The prototype for the header file is:
/*
#ifndef GETOPT_H
#define GETOPT_H
int getopt(int nargc, char * const nargv[], const char *ostr) ;
#endif
