# Regionerate - Free Code Layout Addin for VS.NET

[Omer Rauchwerger](http://blog.rauchy.net/) is a reader of this blog. A while ago he sent me an email about a new addin for visual studio he created called [Regionerate](http://www.rauchy.net/regionerate) which was in private beta at the time. Unfortunately it ended up in my spam box and I couldn't find it until today.

Now [Regionerate](http://www.rauchy.net/regionerate) is public (and open source) and seems like a cool addin to have in your tool box if you're a neat freak who likes their code to look exactly like they want it too. Here's the [tool site](http://www.rauchy.net/regionerate), and here's the [tool's blog](http://blog.regionerate.net/). It even has a [#Develop](http://www.icsharpcode.net/OpenSource/SD/Default.aspx) plugin, cool!
