Shortcut to turn on Resharper

Question

Usually I start VS2008 without Resharper because it makes VS startup way too slow and I just need to fix a bug. But sometimes, I do want to turn on Resharper.

Is there a way to setup a keyboard shortcut that enables Resharper?

Answer 1

To close out this question, I did eventually find an answer with R# 5.x.

Answer 2

I haven't tried it, but Tools/Add-in Manager will let you dynamically load an add-in. You could probably use Tools/Macros to record yourself using the Add-in Manager and then assign a saved macro to a keystroke.

Alternately, see "How to: Run Add-ins on the Command Line" in the help; you could then create two shortcuts for VS with and without R#.

If you have sufficient memory it's simpler just to leave VS running all day. I wouldn't even fix a bug without ReSharper... :)
