I read the words rapid application development with regard to the Revit Extensions framework and instantly became excited. I downloaded the REX SDK (although Extension directories already existed) moved the project and item templates to the Visual Studio templates folder, started a new project by selecting the WPF template, and waited for the wizard to appear. Nothing appeared. Strange, but not the end of the world. I navigated to the addins file and noticed that there appears to be a helper function that converts $REXModuleFullPath$ into a filepath. When I go to build the solution, however, $ raises numerous errors because it is not a recognized character. I cannot determine if this is an installation error, a Visual Studio Express version incompatability, or if I am not understanding the process flow. All help is greatly appreciated.
