Whenever i start a new codefile, alot of the time i find myself haveing to add all the xna refrences at the top, so i realised this would make an exilent snippit

save the following xml as UsingXNA.snippet

- <CodeSnippets xmlns=”http://schemas.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/2005/CodeSnippet“>

- <CodeSnippet Format=”1.0.0“>

- <Header>

  <Title>XNA Using statments</Title>

  <Author>NekoCake Industries</Author>

  <Description>Inserts all the using statments needed for good xna useage</Description>

  <HelpUrl>www.nekocake.com</HelpUrl>

- <SnippetTypes>

  <SnippetType>Expansion</SnippetType>

  </SnippetTypes>

  <Shortcut>UsingXNA</Shortcut>

  </Header>

- <Snippet>

- <Code Language=”CSharp“>

- <![CDATA[

#region Using Statements using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using Microsoft.Xna.Framework; using Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Audio; using Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Content; using Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Graphics; using Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Input; using Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Storage; #endregion

  ]]>

  </Code>

  </Snippet>

  </CodeSnippet>

  </CodeSnippets>

Then start up GSE, click tools -> code snippet manager -> add then find where you saved the xml, and load it in. whenever you need the xna refences, just type UsingXNA and press tab twice when intelesence picks it up!
