I couldn't get copilot to do this so i ended up writing a program to do it instead. But Copilot helped, so there's that :-) |

Question
Here are the (last two) requests I've given github copilot - I did not save the first one but it was pretty much the same:
request:
i asked you to update my code inplace to change all variable, subroutine and function names to camel case. However, you showed this to me in the chat window which i do not want. I want the code updated in my program (Program.vb) that is in the Visual Studio editor. Also, because the code was long you stopped doing what you were doing, showing me the changes in the chat window, before you got to the end of the code. WITHOUT showing me the changes in the chat window, can you make the changes in my code in the Visual Studio editor directly. Also, can you first check, based on the length of my code that you be able to finish this if you start.
response:
Sure, I will update the variable, subroutine, and function names to camel case directly in your Program.vb file in the Visual Studio editor.
(but it update the chat window instead, and stop part way through).
request:
please fully reread my last request. You did exactly what I told you not to and by doing so you are waisting my time and your resources. Explain why?
Both times the github started showing me all my changed code, line by line, in the chat window - but ended before it had reached the bottom of the code with 'the response is truncated because it is too long. Try rephrasing your question.
Any idea how I can get what I want accomplished.
I am using Visual Studio Community edition (not Visual Studio Code) and paying the annual fee for Github Copilot services.
Edit: Here is the program that I would like to have updated to use camel case
