How to set vscode to display the number of selected lines?

Who knows how to set vscode to display the number of selected lines? Just like NotePad++, when we select many lines, we can see how many lines selected in the lower right corner, thanks!

without extension, use middle button on the mouse to select lines, then number of selected lines is shown in status bar.

Try this extension: Selected Lines Count

demo

Without an extension, you have to resort to a workaround: use the command Add Cursors to Line Ends and observe the selection count. The default shortcut is Shift+Alt+I (i, not L).

Surely, you can find an extension. Till now, you can see in the Status Bar, how many characters you have selected. Take a look, at some extensions here.
