Error with gist create about gist

[jdowner]

Thanks @lambdamusic ! The issue with the filename is something that I also noticed recently (#90) and hopefully has been addressed in master. However, I have not pushed that fix to pypi with a new version yet. There are a few other changes that I would like to push with a new version.

Sorry about that! Can you tell me what version you have installed?

I don't have access to OSX but I think I have a fix for you. The problem here is that gist has to wait for the editor to finish writing the file before it sends anything to github. By default, the /usr/bin/code command opens a separate process. However, there is a command line option you can pass to VC telling it to wait for the process to terminate. Just append --wait to the command in the configuration file,

editor: /usr/bin/code --wait

This should open a tab in VC and wait for you to close the tab before trying to send the contents to github.

This works on ubuntu but would you mind trying it out to make sure it works for you before I close this issue?

Thanks! It does work indeed (and sorry for the late reply)

A couple of comments FYI

• the vscode file buffer needs to be saved&closed for the script to continue (as expected)
• the file is uploaded with name null
