Simple Boo addin for MonoDevelop 4 and Xamarin Studio

The following features are implemented:

• Syntax highlighting
• Project creation
• Compilation via xbuild

No autocompletion or refactoring support. Still it allows to create, build, run and debug projects.

Note that it uses XBuild (Mono's MSBuild clone) to compile the projects. It should work fairly well with recent Boo versions (0.9.7).

To make the IDE find the msbuild targets file suitable for Boo projects you must set the environment variable BooToolPath in your system (instructions for OSX), pointing to where Boo is installed.

The addin includes a recent version of Boo under the boo directory, you can use that one if you please.

To install the addin you can simply clone the repository to your computer addins directory. For Xamarin Studio in OSX it's located at ~/Library/Application Support/XamarinStudio-4.0/LocalInstall/Addins/.
