I’ve just finished coding up a new version of MoXAML Power Toys. This release adds a new keyword search function and tidies up the commenting functionality based on feedback.
Keyword search
Highlight a word in the source and select Lookup keyword from the menu, and voila – a Google and Live search are performed based on the keyword (using the appropriate language type as well).
Menu in action
Search window in operation
Commenting
The comment feature now places nicely with the existing comment command, so if you have an ordinary XAML comment in place, running the MoXAML commenter on it will handle it just as if the original comment had been done with MoXAML.
Another new feature in the Commenter is the ability to add an empty <!– –> comment so you can add your own comment text in.
Downloads
After downloading, you’ll need to change the extension from .doc to .zip. This is a requirement of WordPress.com
Installer – no source: moxaml21releasezip
Source code: moxamlpowertoys21zip
As always, keep your comments and requests coming in. No idea goes unconsidered.

Pete, the source link isn’t working. I need to install it manually cuz something is messed up with my computer, or I don’t know how to use VS… one of those.
Logan – I’ve updated the link. I’m not sure why it didn’t have it in the first place, but I’ve reuploaded the file.
Great work, Pete! The new commenting is super slick. I still have to play around with the other features.
Thanks Logan. That’s much appreciated. Just wait till you see the next version.
