Editor scripts

I’ve noticed that there are only two editor scripts that I am using during development. First one is XML documentation template (Scripts\Documentation\Header Template) – very nice script for documenting classes\methods. It automatically generates documentation sections for description, input and output parameters and exceptions. The second one is parm method template (Scripts\Template\Method\Parm) – creates a standard AX getter\setter. The rest of the scripts are either to specific and need for them doesn’t appear in my daily work or they are doing too simple things and it is faster for me just type them.
What editor scripts are you using from standard AX?
What known editor scripts extensions are you using?
What kind of custom editor scripts are you implementing for yourself?

System Documentation

It is known fact that in AX there are quite a lot of kernel classes, tables, data types, functions, etc. that are not visible in the AOT but can be used from the code. For example, class Args. There is a nice way to get an overview of all this stuff - in the System Documentation node in the AOT. The full list of all kernel objects and functions can be found there. And actually some of them have nice documentation - the one that can be found on MSDN.
