Commands search provider integrating with Visual Studio's Quick Launch

Visual Studio - yep

Getting old - yep

Having problems finding all those hard to remember shortcuts? - what year is it, oh, sorry - yep

 

QuickLaunch shows you whats on the menus - great. It doesn't show you all that you can do!

QuickLaunchCommands will find your search pattern within all Commands available for the current context. 

i.e. [pseudocode] DTE.Commands.FindAll(cmd => cmd.IsAvailable)

So - example - DeleteLine - you can do it, but only if you know the shortcut.

Try and find the shortcut key for DeleteLine - go on, bet you have to go keyboard settings options to find it.

Install QuickLaunchCommands: Ctrl+Q "line delete" - there you go: CTRL+SHIFT+L.

Or - example - Goto Next Error - again, its doable - and can save you tons of mouse moving.

CTRL+Q "next error" - there again: CTRL+SHIFT+F12

I very much stand on the shoulder of giants.

 

Source code available when I get a minute or two or by being badgered to do it.......

 

Hope someone finds it useful.

versions

1.5: Fixed problem where certain COM components could become detached whilst building command table cache causing exception. We now catch and ignore these exceptions. (Thanks Andrii for the logging :)

1.4: renamed shortcut to @cmd.

1.3: package loads early to allow command table to be created before first QL use.

1.2: internal

1.1: It was a little intense in its startup, plus some other optimizations to speed it up.

1.0: First commit.
