[Radiant] Re: Layouts, snippets and site assets on the file system?

[Casper Fabricius]

Nice work, Andrew. I wonder how hard it would to get this extension to  
also dump and load SnS text assets. Not that any of the extensions  
should have a dependency on the other, but the file-system-extension  
could perhaps check for the presence of SnS and dump that too, if  
present?

Cheers,
Casper
