Quick Info on Cursor

A VS Code extension that automatically shows Quick Info (type information, documentation, etc.) when the keyboard cursor moves to a symbol.

Features

• Automatic hover on cursor movement - No need to hover with mouse
• Configurable delay - Set custom delay before showing info (default: 500ms)
• Easy toggle - Enable/disable the extension anytime

How it works

When you move your cursor to a symbol (variable, function, etc.), the extension automatically triggers VS Code's hover action after a configurable delay. This eliminates the need to manually hover with your mouse to see type information and documentation.

Settings

This extension contributes the following settings:

• quickInfoOnCursor.enabled: Enable/disable the extension (default: true)
• quickInfoOnCursor.delay: Delay in milliseconds before showing Quick Info (default: 500)
