Cool, thanks for jumping on this! What do you think of changing it to something like This file has no dependencies in that case? I think that would be even more clear :)

Suggested change

	let depsString = depsList == [] ? "-" : String.concat(", ", depsList)
	let lenses = (state.settings.dependenciesCodelens==true) ? [("Dependencies: " ++ depsString, topLoc), ...lenses] : lenses;
	let depsString = depsList == [] ? "This file has no dependencies" : ("Dependencies: " ++ String.concat(", ", depsList))
	let lenses = (state.settings.dependenciesCodelens==true) ? [(depsString, topLoc), ...lenses] : lenses;

could we keep the additional text output minimalistic in this case please, since it affects the file header line and people read this so often; less is more, less prevents distracting.

hmm sure that's fine -- I just think the " - " is almost as confusing as not having anything. What about Dependencies: [none]?

[hartmut27]

This would be nice :)

I've reworked this corresponding to your proposal in a new commit, same PR.
