Description

I would like to be able to click the run button, and then have the cursor's focus automatically switch to the terminal so I can input stuff to the project. Is there an easy way to set this up? I am using Java Extension Pack.

The issue names no file, test, or entry point. Start by finding where the run button and terminal are handled in the extension; done means clicking Run transfers cursor focus to the terminal so project input can be entered.
