It would be nice that there will be menu command (for example F6 would be shortcut) for compile only (compile query without run).

Enable LinqPad to parse '\a' escape code to trigger Bell
I use the bell character for debugging as an audio watch signal (set some logical condition that returns the bell when true or place a bell character in a subroutine to see if it runs). Please add the 0x0007 code to the escape codes LinqPad recognizes.
This code is silent in LinqPad but rings the bell in VS:
Console.WriteLine("\a");1 vote -
allow executing only the line the cursor is on with F8
I find this feature very convenient in Powershell. it would just mean not having to select the line before executing it.

Create a serach index for linqpad queries
I create lots of Linqpad queries. Many times I have a question in my mind while coding. To answer I try something out in LINQPad and save my query somewhere in my directory tree.
Some months later I have the same (or a similar) question but can't find my query because there are lots of them.
I suggest you add a search index. It would make it easier to find old queries just from parts of the filename or query contents.1 vote -
Make code snippets consistent with Visual Studio
Make code snippets consistent with Visual Studio
For example C# 'prop' snippet
Visual Studio:
public int MyProperty { get; set; }
LINQPad:
public object Foo { get; set; }
int or object is discussable but MyProperty is so much more recognizable than Foo.
For consistency just stick with Visual Studio definitions (which means int here).Using different content for the snippets is confusing when accustomed to Visual Studio.

api
Quickly Generate "API" for each tab so that you can execute other tabs easily.
Treat each tab as it's own exportable API/Library that can be executed by other tabs.

- Allow custom wrapper for the program mode, including custom assembly references.
This should be a preset thing. This would enable LinqPad to be used as a scripting editor as well.

Allow the running of custom tools, i.e. custom compilers (in addition to the one you already use)
This will allow for verification or manipulation of script code.

Fix clicking on explorer item hyperlink navigation
I'm making a Context Driver for a DB2 relational database, and I found that setting the ExplorerItem.Hyperlink makes the appropriate item (Column) look like a hyperlink. If I click on it nothing happens. If I expand the referenced ExplorerItem's Parent (table) then scroll back up and click on hyperlink it works as expected.

Allow viewing entire byte[] buffer contents
Linqpad does a nice job of rendering byte[] buffers (as hex), but truncates the display after like 20 bytes or so.
I'd be nice if when it did this the display was hyperlinked so you could click on the 'byte[]' and get a popup with the full* buffer displayed.
(I need to compare bytes-on-the-wire with what the application did/didn't manage to parse, and hacking this kind of popup in the query itself is painful)
- within reason. First few kb would be enough in most cases.

COBOL
COBOL programming (relative and index file organizations think of the fun!) would be great - but I'll be surprised if it is implemented.
The Idea being to make LinqPad into the first choice as an educational program tool.1 vote -
Convention for auto-discovering internal nuget server(s)
I'm deploying a tool to (technical) end users that uses linqpad as the UI. Before they can user it, we first have to tell them how to configure our internal nuget server.
I'd be great if there was a simple convention for discovering local nuget server(s), so this didn't have to be done manually.
I'm thinking of something a simple as - for domain-joined PCs - a probe to a server called 'nuget' (ie using the same DNS suffix), that just checks if it's responds validly using the nuget API. This could be a 'prompt on first install' action (or…

Display connection properties summary on mouse over
I always rename connections so they have a meaningful names and I also use the create similar connection. Unfortunatly, this feature also copy the name and to figure out which of the two I should rename, having a tool-tip with the connection details would greatly help.

have a place to input raw text as a connection
I'd like to be able to run queries against a JSON structure (e.g. pull all the orders out > 24 hours old or show status of customers). Right now I take my json save it in a folder e.g. C:\inputdata.txt and then have an extension method in Linqpad that loads from that text file. it would be great if I could dump text into linqpad directly and reference it within my various queries

customize search engine for F1 help
When I use "Help on Current Type/Member", LINQPad harnesses Google to search for the specified information. Unfortunately, Google is currently blocked in my country. Can you add a feature to LINQPad so I can switch the search engine to Bing, Baidu, etc?

Use Warning Icon (not Error icon) when searching for nugets from standard edition
When searching for nugets from standard edition, a dialog is displayed saying you can only search for packages that contain linqpad samples.
That dialog shows an error icon, not a warning icon, which seems like the wrong semantics (it's a warning of limited functionality, not an error that something doesn't work). It'd be good if the text started with 'Warning:' also.
I know this looks like splitting hairs, but this just genuinely confused an end-user, who assumed my instructions were wrong.
