Description

A collection of miscellaneous plugins for Windows Live Writer that use exploratory "hacks" to get around limitations in the Windows Live Writer API.

Purpose

The purpose of this project is to share the source code and experiences I went through while writing some of my Windows Live Writer plugins. As I write more plugins I will be posting the source code here.

I think that of particular interest to plugin writers will be some of the work I compiled (no pun intended) to get to information from posts that is not readily available through the current Windows Live Writer API. Some examples of these are getting to the title or selected html or text from a post.

Code Snippet is the real deal plugin for Windows Live Writer to display any type of code highlight snippets. It has a clean and user friendly interface and works seemlessly with WLW.

Thanks, I tried it and it's really good! It's better if it could support C++ and Java. I checked the code a little bit, and I think it's not hard to support C++ to have just the basic Keywords and Preprocessors. Can I do that on the code in this project,, I mean does that involve any copyright problem with Jean-Claude Manoli?

Sorry, I did not see the comment. Please feel free to add the support. Make sure to bring it back this way to help improve the plugin.
