After my snafu with NUnit, I decided to look into ways of avoiding this pain. Googling found a command line utility called subst. From that I’m creating a GUI wrapper around it, so that you can keep the drive mapping after a reboot. It will be smart enough to be able to store multiple mappings, as well as seeing the available drives, and storing the settings in a config for use in other computers. It’s nearing completion, so I’ll be able to eat my own cooking soon.
The other app that I want to get started is an addin for Visual Studio 2005 that would also be used in the Express editions. Getting source control menus into Express (or any other missing menus, like the other refactoring tools) will ease much pain, instead of trying to remember what needs to be added or checked out when writing code.
