New extension: CSS Is Less

While browsing StackOverflow for questions about VS2010 , I came upon a question about how to make .less files open in the CSS editor .

Getting XML values in PowerShell

I couldn’t believe how easy this was when I finally figured it out… I needed to enumerate all of the email addresses with an <email> tag in an XML file. The only really tricky thing was using the “InnerXML” property  # Create XML document from file $MemberDoc = [xml](get-content $XMLFile) # Get all of the email addresses in the XML document $EmailAddresses = $MemberDoc.GetElementsByTagName(“Email”) Foreach ($Email in $EmailAddresses){  # Get InnerXML value of Email node and assign it to string  $stmail=$Email.InnerXML }
