Hello all!
Here is my first addon for Blender: Misc Anim Tools!
This is a simple addon that takes common animation tools and sticks them into one place in the properties panel. This script is greatly inspired off of the ‘Freen’s Animation Tools’ addon by Beorn Leonard, and I actually found out how to add two features in by looking at the code for that script. The rest of it I stole from Blender itself. 
If anyone wants any features, let me know!
Here is the link for the download.
