Hey, I use lua + the moonscript library (i.e., require "moonscript" from lua) so I don't need the scripts to compile. How would I go about disabling the compilation on save?

Extension swears when sees love:

attempt to index global 'love' (a nil value).

Have no idea what to do with it.
Same message I get when using comand moon file.moon.

But I can avoid this error if use moonc file.moon (without -l parameter).

UPD:

I've read this doc https://github.com/leafo/moonscript/blob/master/docs/command_line.md#global-variable-whitelist but still don't understand how to add love to whitelist and where lint config.moon should be located ;(

I've put this file to the root of my project:

-- lint_config.moon
{
  whitelist_globals: {
    ["."]: {"love"}
  }
}

and now there is no errors when I run moonc -l ., but vscode still shows the error.

Is there a setting to disable the auto-transpiling when saving a .moon file?

It's a nice feature, but it is not always needed. In my use case, i'm coding for the TIC-80, which can accept .moon files directly and does not need to be transpiled. If there is a .lua file in the same directory, it will default to importing that instead of the moonscript one and so it causes errors.

Also, this is unrelated, but is there a setting to set the destination of the transpiled .lua files? Usually people have a separate folder for their moonscript files and a separate folder for the transpiled lua equivalents.

Would be awesome if lint messages could be displayed inline. It seems like moonc's messages are not super-specific regarding the character positions though.
