Installing dependencies with Chocolatey

Chocolatey is a open source package manager for Windows. The project is an year old, and still in rapid development, but is usable enough for everyday use. It automates the process of installing software that would otherwise require the user to browse countless websites, and download tones of installers, freeing up the user's time. To install Chocolatey, run the command line as admin and paste this:
Code:
@powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy unrestricted -Command "iex ((new-object net.webclient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))" && SET PATH=%PATH%;%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\chocolatey\bin
Now you can begin installing whatever the fuck you want - granted, it's in the repo. In the case PD, you want the following. Again, open command line up in admin, and copy:
Code:
cinst monogame
XNA Game Studio 3.5 and 4.x still requires you to go to Microsoft's website, though.
