I have Visual Studio 2010 setup to remove and sort settings on save with the Power Commands extensions. This is great, but sometimes it removes the using System.Linq at the top. I also find myself scrolling to the top to add the using when I first add System.Linq. So I wrote a quick macro to do it for me.
Sub AddUsingLinq()
DTE.ActiveDocument.Selection.StartOfDocument()
DTE.ActiveDocument.Selection.StartOfLine(vsStartOfLineOptions.vsStartOfLineOptionsFirstText)
DTE.ActiveDocument.Selection.Text = "using System.Linq;"
DTE.ActiveDocument.Selection.NewLine()
DTE.ExecuteCommand("Edit.FormatDocument")
DTE.ExecuteCommand("Edit.RemoveAndSort")
DTE.ActiveDocument.Save()
DTE.ExecuteCommand("View.NavigateBackward")
End Sub
Hook this up to a shortcut (tools -> options -> keyboard, I chose ctrl + x, c) and you'll be moving faster than ever.
