  2. Show .cs files in the "My Queries" file tree and allow viewing .cs files

    This allows us to quickly view and grab code from .cs files and paste it in a query for testing.

    This increases productivity as we do not have to resort to another editor to view the file and copy contents from other app.

  3. LINQPad is currently very not great at debugging anything with text.
    - There is no way to set line endings to Unix vs. Windows
    - When I paste text with Unix line endings, LINQPad silently modifies my strings to use Windows newlines. Boo!
    - There is no way to see line endings, because they are not shown in the debugger, even with "dump", so when writing string parsing code, my counts are just mysteriously off, more with every line.
    - The debugger "VALUES" column uses a variable-width font, so it is hard to compare values at a glance because even…

  4. With the evolution of .NET to support cross-platform development, enabling developers to build and run applications across Windows, Linux, and macOS, I believe now is an opportune time to consider developing a version of LINQPad for macOS.

  5. Hi,

    I have written a custom linqpad driver and published it to our internal NuGet feed.
    In the past there were no problems installing this driver.

    After updating out Nexus OSS server to the latest version, the driver cannot be found anymore.
    I get the same behaviour on our Azure DevOps Feed.

    So I did some debugging and found out, that the filtering of the tags is pretty weird across the existing NuGet servers.

    When searching for custom drivers, LinqPad creates the following url:
    ...v3/query/beta?q=tags:linqpaddriver%20&skip=0&take=40&prerelease=false&semVerLevel=2.0.0
    The filtering is applied via "tags:linqpaddriver%20"

    Here my problems begin...
    The nexus server does not…

  6. Our SQL CE database does not use a standard extension. We use a custom one so we can associate it with our application. I can simply rename the file when I want to use LINQpad with it, but it would be much easier if I were allowed to open a file with any extension as a SQL CE database. I would also be able to use LINQpad to view that database while our application is running, which is sometimes necessary.

  8. Resharper provides a user friendly copy protection and LINQPad should do so too. Please.

  9. Self-explanatory, replace the Win Forms UI with a WPF UI or allow users to choose which one to download.

  11. It would be nice to have the tab name be the name of the table when running the pre-defined right-click queries instead of query n.

  13. Probably Just Me (and I think I could do it myself using MSCHart Add in). but sometimes I would like to be able to do very simple charts of my queries results. Scatter, Block Chart and May Be Pie Chart would probably be enough. like a light weight matlab....

  14. Allow to create files with the .linqbat extension and the ability to run them in the command line or double clicking them without opening the full LINQPad UI.

  15. When I am creating a query as soon as I type 'from' and press tab, a default query template is automatically inserted into the editor for me. I would like to have a preference added that would allow the disabling of this behavior similar to the existing 'Enable lambda snippets on query operators' preference. Thanks.

  16. When I copy/paste from Visual Studio to LINQPad (and back) I have to rename all the table variables to the real table names.
    If I could alias a table, e.g. "Products" into "myProductsTable" the transition from VS to LP would be smooth.

  18. Pretty simple - lets me keep my hands closer to the money spot on the keyboard. I find F5 to be disrupting to my keyboard position.

  20. When using LinqPad for sql editing (i.e. as part of stored procedures, dragging table names from the tree view gives the wrong name because you are pluralising by adding "s". Would also be great if app automatically could fill in the schema for a table when dragged onto a sql query page.
