+Here you can find information on several visual studio code snippets that might be helpful when programming for HeuristicLab. The snippets are available for download under [https://dev.heuristiclab.com/trac/hl/core/browser/trunk/tools/HL3Snippets trunk/tools/HL3Snippets] and are tested in Visual Studio 2010.
 
-Download the files and place them into:[[BR]]
-'''<My Documents>\Visual Studio 2010\Code Snippets\Visual C#\My Code Snippets[[BR]]'''
-When you load Visual Studio these should be available.
+When you have checked out the sources you can point Visual Studio 2010 to the snippets location and have them included automatically. You can do this by going to Tools > Code Snippet Manager and from the languages drop down box choose "Visual C#". Then choose "Add..." and select the folder where you have checked out the snippets.

+If you don't have a working copy of the source you can download the files from the link above and place them into:[[BR]]
+<My Documents>\Visual Studio 2010\Code Snippets\Visual C#\My Code Snippets[[BR]]

+Updating the code snippets usually doesn't require a restart of Visual Studio. They should be available immediately.
