Adding to code hints

I want to add things to the "Tag libraries" I guess?

You know when you are in ASP VBScript or something and you hit CTRL+SPACE it shows the code hints? Well I use the same name for many types of objects and I was wondering if I can add things to that, and customize it. This would help tuns!

Thanks

This is the "Application" Configuration folder.

This is the "User" Configuration folder. Note that the "Application
Data" folder is hidden by default, so you may need to change your Folder
Options to see it.

So, to add Code Hints, look in the Application Configuration/CodeHints
folder for examples of what is already in DW. Then add your Code Hints
to the "User" Configuration/CodeHints folder.

Configuration is one of two places (on a PC; I assume it's similar on a
Mac):

C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Dreamweaver [Version]\Configuration
C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Macromedia
\Dreamweaver [Version]\Configuration

The Help files have a section on 'Extending Dreamweaver'. I suspect that
reading the latter and trolling through the former should get you started.
