.nims files get incorrent errors

[dawkot]

It would be better not to check .nims files at all if it can't be immediately fixed.

Example

Editor will complain that procedure setCommand doesn't exist in a .nims file if we try to call it, even though it obviously does.

Porting this issue over as well since it is also nimscript related.

Sorry, I can't replicate this issue.

Hey @saem, I have a repro step.

1. Clone https://github.com/binhonglee/wings
2. Open up src/main/scripts/preCompile.nims
3. Hit save

Unintended effect:

1. Underlines mode as an undeclared identifier
2. See a const.nim file created at the top level of the project directory.

@binhonglee thanks for the reproduction, that's not the same error or maybe it is, in which case it's it's not really a problem.

In this case there is one thing to do, create a nim.project setting in .vscode/setting.json with an array of Nim file(s) that you actually compile. I think Nim check won't kick off for it anymore.

If that doesn't work the other issue, which is a nim issue, is that Nim check needs a Nim cfg file in the top level directory with the path specified as . or it won't know about the const.nim file.
