' Simple macro that fully collapses all items in the
' Solution Explorer rather than just the top level node
'
' To make live easier, bind it to a keyboard setting such
' as Ctrl+Shift+` which by default has no bindings (Ctrl+` is
' now used by Resharper
'
' Tested and works with:
' Visual Studio 2005
' Visual Studio 2008
' Visual Studio 2010

' Select the solution node, or else when you click
' on the solution window
' scrollbar, it will synchronize the open document

' out the corresponding node which is probably not what you want.
