Compatibility with Windows WSL

[sylbae]

Hello,

I am using Windows + WSL for Splunk development
Therefore I am using VS Code with WSL-mode to directly edit my Splunk files.

I tried to install your new extension... I can see basic features work (syntax highlighting) but I am being prompt to install missing extensions (not all extensions are installed by default when VS Code is working in WSL "remote" mode):

1. First I have been asked to enable Python extension --> ok no problem for this one
2. But now I am asked to enable the "Remote - SSH" extension. And I cannot do that, likely because I am running in WSL mode.

The exact error message is:

Cannot active the 'Splunk Extension' extension because it depends on the 'Remote - SSH' extension which is not loaded. Would you like to reload the window to load the extension?

I tried already reload as suggested but it does not work.

Thanks for the feedback. In the meantime, you can remove the Remote SSH dependency by editing the package.json file located in your extension directory . Remove ms-vscode-remote.remote-ssh from the extensionDependencies section. It should look like this:

"extensionDependencies": [
        "ms-python.python"
    ],
