We’ve solved that problem differently. You can connect to an arbitrary REPL process with `Julia: Connect External REPL`; afterwards, all code will be evaluated there.

For your specific use case, check out the `julia.persistentSession.enabled` setting, which allows the extension to manage its own tmux session for your Julia REPL without any interaction on your part (which may or may not work in your case).
