A massive boost for the F# ecosystem - delighted to see this feature.

Great, thanks! I immediately bought the new license. IntelliSense works but is too slow.

Will the final version have better performance?

YAY YAY !!!

Oh man, i am excited about this

+1! IntelliSense for F# is a must have!

Awesome Joe, I use F# in linqpad very often and this will make life so much better.

+1 for F# intellisense

scrawl looks really good i will definitly check it out but it looks like not all hope is lost for linqpad though.

Tsunami, while no where near as refined as LINQPad (which I absolutely love), is a great lightweight F# IDE. I'd love to wake up one day to find their features mashed together!

The Tsunami guys seem to have worked out the whole F# Intellisense business quite well (they're also using Actipro components & mono cecil). The UI is sparse but flexible and works great. One really nice feature is the ability to easily embed the whole Tsunami UI in another .NET app (Excel, Rhino3D...). In the Rhino3D case, Tsunami runs in the same appdomain (no remoting, something I've been unable to achieve with LINQPad) which gives you a powerful minimal embedded plugin dev IDE (intellisense & syntax highlighting)... no more round-trips to VS!

So Mr. Albahari, when you get around to working on LINQPad's F# Support, please flatter the Tsunami guys and imitate some of the features in Tsunami!

Cheers!

would make LINQPad even better

+1 LINQPad rocks. F# IntelliSense would simply make it rock all the more.

I have been using LINQPad-free for quite some time and postponing upgrade till F# Intellisense is implemented. Recently I broke down and bought the upgrade anyway to get C# intellisense and snippets, despite lack of F# support - this feature is a tremendous productivity booster. But I would readily pay for another upgrade to F# intellisense support, if it came available at some point.

I do a lot of F# prototyping and have begun using LINQPad for it - and it's great - except for auto-completion. The missing piece for making LINQPad a very cool F# environment.

Add it + 1000000

Would be awesome. Im using F#, Would be awesome.

This is the feature that is needed to stop me switching to Visual Studio for scripts since F# is the more expressive language for functional programming (has more features). If I had this we probably would have no need for other scripting languages. There are plenty of code bindings on GitHub for F# that show how to implement the required functionality as well.

Yes, please do add intellisense for F#. I paid for the upgrade for it (for c#) and wouldn't want to live w/o it. Adding it for F# may get more people to buy Linqpad.

There is now a compiler service for F# that should help with this:
http://fsharp.github.io/FSharp.Compiler.Service/editor.html

@Hannes - The Actipro control has tools for creating languages and bindings for the editor, so an F# provider could be implemented without discarding the tool.

Can't easily happen.. the UI is a 3rd party component Joe has no control over, best we can hope is he forwards this feedback.

If you _really_ want to push this, contact the guys at http://www.actiprosoftware.com/ (this is the component, as stated here: http://www.linqpad.net/howlinqpadworks.aspx )
