Hi Greg, Could you use your version control software to do this? SVN has externals & Git has submodules. Perhaps these mechanisms could do what you want?

I want them to behave like little Nuget packages of source code, so when I update snippets in one project they will be recognised as out-dated when I open other projects using them. You can get this sharing effect by adding files "as link" in multiple projects, but then the projects get mixed up with your local file system. Putting the snippets in a utility DLL is technically correct, but far too heavy handed for me. Is anyone aware of some facility that does what I want? A VS plugin would probably be the way to go, but they're really taxing and specialised to write. Maybe there are other ways. Greg K
