Visual Studio as script editor

I copied Arend's idea of using a text file to embed code into a scripting component. This way you can use Visual Studio or any other alternative as the editor.

It works real-time, the scripting component is run every time the file is saved. The code is also stored inside the component, so if you want to send the file to someone else, you just need to send the .gh. They don't need the text file or any additional plugin.

I haven't tested it much yet.

Things not working:
- You have to type the input arguments manually if you want intellisense for them.
- If you want to add assemblies you have to do it both in the scripting component and VS and manually add the using line.

Great job. Will you make it work with vb ?
