I am interested in writing a visual studio extension that has hooks to allow me to capture keystrokes from the code editor and record them for use later. Visual studio extensions seem like a big topic so I am looking for some help getting started.

Is there a forum for visual studio extensions?

What type of extension should I create?

Are there any sample extensions that access keystrokes?

See for example the Text Macros extension that records characters that you type in the code editor.
