SlickEdit Gadgets for VS 2005
The folks over at SlickEdit has just released a set of cool tools for Visual Studio 2005. They call them "Gadgets", but they are what we would call Power Toys.
The set of Gadgets include the following:
- Editor Gadgets - a collection of utilities to dazzle up the Visual Studio editor experience. One of the utilities even lets you put a dancing banana on the editor background! That's productivity!
- Command Spy - allows you to track the Visual Studio command you have been executing and let you quickly learn the associated key binding.
- File Explorer - this is integrated right into Visual Studio and allows you to open projects, files very quickly.
- Data Object Analyzer - allows you to inspect the contents of any clipboard/drag-and-drop operation.
- SLOC Report - this is my favorite. Analyzes your source code and shows the line count for comments, code and whitespaces!
These cool tools show that Visual Studio is a powerful platform to build on. You can read more about and download these cool tools here.
