Integrate CSE HTML Validator with Visual Studio (2013,2015)
I see the instructions for integrating with various text editors, although I am a bit surprised to not see Sublime there. What I also would like to do is invoke the product from within the Visual Studio IDE. Is there a FAQ/How-To for that? Thank you.

Hello,
We don't have anything specific for Sublime or Visual Studio yet on our integration page, but I will look into adding information for those programs.
It's easy to open the editor in any program that allows you to run a command. You just need to run a command like this to open a file in CSE HTML Validator's editor:

Hello,
I found a way to open a document in CSE HTML Validator from Sublime Text:
https://www.htmlvalidator.com/htmlval/i ... ublimeText
And to show the validation results in Sublime's console window:
https://www.htmlvalidator.com/htmlval/i ... ublimeText
And open a document from Microsoft Visual Studio:
https://www.htmlvalidator.com/htmlval/i ... sualStudio
Is this what you were wanting?
Strangely and unfortunately, Visual Studio disables the 'Use Output window' option for exe's so a workaround would be needed to show validation results in Visual Studio's output window.
