Here-String does not work with tab/space

[tonidy]

When I tried to write this:

<space> or <tab>$aTestVariable = @"
<space> or <tab>       Test 
<space> or <tab>       Satu
<space> or <tab>       Dua
<space> or <tab>       Tiga
<space> or <tab>"@

Then what I saw:

But this code works:

<space> or <tab>$aTestVariable = @"
<space> or <tab>       Test 
<space> or <tab>       Satu
<space> or <tab>       Dua
<space> or <tab>       Tiga
<empty space>"@

Is this by design? I could not find any information about this.

The accepted form of a here-string is:

@"<whitespace>*<newline>
<zero or more lines of text>
"@ 

The closing quotation mark must be the first character of a new line. See the help topic about_Quoting_Rules.

Yep, this is a facet of the PowerShell language rather than a VS Code extension bug. I'll close this, we can reopen if you feel that there's another issue here. Thanks!
