Description

Right now, the extension throws an ugly syntax error when executed on a non-Rust source file. It would be better if it showed a more useful error message that indicates, that only Rust files are supported. Alternatively, the extension could be context-sensitive and only be executable when a Rust files is selected.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Modify the extension's package.json activationEvents to only activate on Rust files, or add a check at the start of the command to verify the file extension and show a user friendly error message for non Rust files.
