VSCode Linux tasks.json MQL4 Compilation - json

Question

I am switching to VSCode from MetaEditor to develop for MetaTrader4.
I'm using MetaTrader4 and MetaEditor in Linux via Wine.
(and MetaEditor runs quite terribly in Wine)
I would like to create a task to compile the code, and hopefully return the same error log to VSCode to further debug the code as if I was using MetaEditor.
I've used this post to figure out what CLI command has been used to compile MQL4:
Compiling MQL4 via command line through wine metaeditor.exe
/usr/bin/wine /path/to/MT4/metaeditor.exe /compile:"Z:\path\to\MT4\MQL4\Experts\Foo\Bar_EA.mq4" /include:"Z:\path\to\MT4\MQL4" /log
My issue is that I don't understand and cannot find any resource that explains what the "commands" inside the tasks.json file does or list of available variables. Like "/include:" or "presentation":, ${file}, etc.
So I took some guesses and I pieced it together to look something like this so far:
{
"version": "2.0.0",
"tasks": [
{
"label": "MQL4 Compile",
"type": "shell",
"command": "/usr/bin/wine /.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/FXChoice MetaTrader 4/metaeditor.exe",
"args": [
"/compile:${file}"
]
}
]
}
Its probably not quite right.
I appreciate your help, thank you
