OverviewMargin2012 is an update of the AllMargins suite of VisualStudio plugins,
originally written by David Pugh. This repository is a restructuring of the files
and an update to VisualStudio 2012.
It is distributed under the MS-PL license (included in this repository in text form).
-----
Introduction:
This is a compilation of the OverviewMargin and several other extensions that use the OverviewMargin. The OverviewMargin shows
a margin on the right side of the editor that logically maps to the entire file (similar the the vertical scroll bar). Unlike
the scroll bar, it maps to the entire file and can contain other margins that provide more information about the file.
