The concept of SolZip is simple - to enable Zip Compression of Visual Studio Solutions and Projects. This is not a unique idea, others have done it too. The uniqueness comes from the tools used to accomplish this, and the userinterfaces offered. The amazing thing is that it is really not the compression part which makes SolZip extremely valuable. The ability to get all relevant files of the solution, excluding generated assemblies, PDB files, XML files, and other random debris, is something that every developer needs time and time again when they want to share their code with others. The ability to right click on a solution in Visual Studio, and make a Zip file of all relevant files makes this extremely easy. Currently SolZip offers zipping of C# Solutions and Projects in Visual Studio 2010 format. This includes Setup projects and to some extent XNA Content projects SolZip contains three UI's: SunZip - A commandline tool (can be found at http://solzip.codeplex.com) SolZipMME - Providing Right click menus for Visual Studio 2010 using MME at http://mme.codeplex.com.
