Maintain a list of most recently used assemblies
There are a few assemblies I often use in LinqPad queries, that are not in the GAC or on Nuget. Every time, I have to browse to their location to find them (e.g. Windows.winmd to use WinRT APIs). It would be nice if there was a "recently used" list in the "Additional references" tab

LINQPad, handy scretch pad.... Why not share?
I keep coming back to LINQPad to write few lines, execute ...verify, then go back to implement the small bit I just wrote and I am sure everyone does that and some would save those random scratch for later use or reference. So I wonder, why not a code snippet share feature directly from LINQPad? It would increase awareness and allow us share or persist some of the quick code written every now and then.
Cheers.

Re-enable VS debugging for the beta
The debugger in LINQPad 4.5 is awesome, but not as good as Visual Studio's. Before the beta, I was using Debugger.Launch/Break to debug in VS. Now, those launch LINQPad's debugger. Unless and until the debugger is as good as VS's, I would like some kind of button or something (as long as it's faster than using the preferences) to use an external debugger.

Support TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE columns in Oracle
Linqpad doesn't work very well if the underlying columns in an Oracle database contain TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE columns.
These appear in the datacontext as DateTime (losing the offset information), however queries using equality checks against them can fail due to the way the underlying IQDriver handles (or otherwise) the conversion back to datetime offset within Oracle.
It's a bit of a pain, but one of the simple approaches is to ensure the generated SQL wraps those columns in either sysextractutc(theColumn) or 'theColumn AT TIME ZONE xxxx' to ensure they are compared with the DateTime parameter that is…

Allow per-folder "linqpad.extensions" file
I would like to be able to create a "My Extensions"-like file per folder so that I can create contexts or extension code that are shared by all of the queries in that folder.

Better experience for __SOURCE_DIRECTORY__ in F#
The FSharp compiler macro 'SOURCE_DIRECTORY' doesn't seem to behave as expected in linqpad - specifically it points to a linqpad temporary execution directory, and not where the .linq file itself resides.
This makes it problematic to use F# type providers within linqpad. Referring to data files relative to the script is pretty common, but the path supplied to a type provider has to be a compile-time literal - ie Util.CurrentQueryPath can't be used. Absolute paths obviously break across machines.
Not sure if a fix even is possible (I can't see anywhere on the F# compiler where you can…

Set Open In Excel name to Grid Title from Dump
When you use Open in Excel on a grid, the Excel (html) file that is opened is named after the query name, but should be named after the Grid title from the Dump command that created the Grid, if one exists.

Add optional parameter to Util.Cmd for defined exit codes
Add optional parameter to Util.Cmd that will accept a parameter so alternate success exit codes can be defined. Currently only 0 is acceptable as a success, but some apps use alternate exit codes.

Turn off UnhandeledException handling in settings
It would be nice if we could be able to turn off the Dump of the Unhandeled exceptions, or Change the Default Handler from LINQPad on the 'AppDomain.CurrentDomain.UnhandledException'.
I have not found any way of turning this off without actually using reflection to fetch, and de-register the default, and then re-register my own implementation (it works, but it's buggy).

Util.Dif Should have an indication of similar or different.
Util.Dif is awesome :)
It would be nice to do something like
var dif = Util.Dif(o1, o2);
if (dif.IsDifferent)
{
dif.Result.Dump();

Management Studio Templates (Ctrl+Shift+M) Support
In SQL Management Studio, you can use expressions like
DECLARE @FirstName NVARCHAR(max)='<Enter FirstName,nvarchar(max),John>';
DECLARE @LastName NVARCHAR(max)='<Enter LastName,nvarchar(max),Doe>';in a *.SQL file. When you press Ctrl+Shift+M, then you are prompted to enter the parameters in one single dialog (in this case it shows "Enter FirstName", and "Enter LastName" displays default values "John" and "Doe", both of type nvarchar(max))
This is quite useful to have some quickly generated macros at hand, and maybe the idea could be supported in C# for Linq Expressions as well ...

Some global settings should be per query
Some settings which are currently global (in Edit > Preferences) should be moved to Query Properties. For instance:
Query tab:
- Compile with/without /optimize+
- Use Roslyn prototype assemblies
Advanced tab:
- Compile VB queries in strict mode
- Do not shadow assembly references
- Run queries in MTA threads
- Use MARS with database connections

Add extra XY series to chart
Currently in the beta charting works really nice, except it is not possible to add an extra XY set, only a Y set can be added using .AddYSeries.

Textbox input pane for c# / vb / f# program
My suggestion is to add an optional expandable text input pane where any string could be written. This pane would be visible when choosing C# Program (or VB / F# Program) in the language drop down. The program template would then feature a Main(string arg) where the input would be fed.
Many times I find myself pasting json, xml, csv, tsv data etc into the programming pane of linqpad. Afterwards I have to put the text into a string variable and replace quoute characters and other special chars to make it compile. Sometimes I instead write the text into a…

Make the "Production" flag configurable at a server level
I often connect to databases individually on a Production server because of the way our security works. These connections are temporary and transient for security reasons.
Rather than marking a connection as Production each time it would be helpful if I could configure the server as a Production server and then each time I connect to an individual database it is automatically marked as Production.
Thanks!0 votes -
Auto update application option
Lately, it seems every time I open the application, I get a message that a new version has been downloaded, do I want to restart LinqPad. Give me a configuration option where I can say, auto restart Linqpad when new version downloaded on start.
