Filtered Debug Viewer tech tool released

A while back I mentioned a small tool I was working on but somehow time and attention got the better of me! I’ve now dusted off the code and shipped V1.0! It’s a small AddIn for Visual Studio 2005 that allows the user to use multiple debug output windows each with a custom filter.
