Based on `snippetformat.xsd`, this one allows multiple <Shortcut> elements. Files of this type will be processed to produce many `.snippet` files, one for each <Shortcut> element.

tahir-hassan / CodeSnippetsWithMultipleShortcuts.xsl
Created October 1, 2019 10:41
I like to have code snippets with multiple shortcuts rather than a single one. Therefore I have an XSD, which is a copy and paste of the Microsoft one, but allowing multiple shortcut elements. I have an XSL transformation that processes it into a form that Visual Studio will understand.
