Hi guys:

I have been working on making the add-on template easier to use for a week off and on now. I have created the next generation add-on wizard, (Which generates a skeleton for your add-on using the add-on template). This was inspired by a couple of people who gave me suggestions of how we could make the add-on template better, and pointed me at a framework for quickly doing this. This software is beta, (I've tried to test it, but I know of a few bugs). If people can test it on their machines and give me feedback that'd be amazing. The following major bug exists on my machine, I don't know why.

The git bash shell simply doesn't work, it just breaks after a certain point.

Also, if you are interested in improving this, please fork and pull request, or ask to be invited to the addons account on github.

Now, when you have time, feel free to try the new addon wizard, and please give me any feedback. Hopefully this will ease add-on creation greatly for people.
