Re: CShell: A simple, yet powerful, C# scripting IDE
#12Well presented. I clicked the link and spent my loading-spinner time thinking thoughts along the lines of "This is silly. Why would anybody build a C# IDE to compete with VS.NET + ReSharper? Surely nobody would ever use anything but that??? I can't believe that anybody would be cheap enough to..." ... and then I arrived at a page that spent ten seconds clearly explaining exactly why I would want to use this thing eve…
The title would have been better if it said C# REPL. Then you wouldn't have experienced that confusion.

#13A C# REPL is welcome indeed, but C# is still too verbose for its own good. The F# REPL is much more useful when exploring dataset.
Although it could be improved with intellisense.

#14Mono has had a C# repl for quite some time: http://www.mono-project.com/CsharpRepl
Good to see the same thing coming to vanilla .Net!

#15Not very often you find a hedge fund behind an open source project. I guess it makes sense really, as many quants will be happy to mess around in a python shell, having a C# shell will probably play nicer with the rest of the companies infrastructure.

#18This is exactly what i need to test out if some code behaves how i want it to, without having to create a new test, open a new project or running code in actual project.

#19What "I/O error occurred"? I mean the IntelliSense hint on the screenshot.
Looks to me like the description of `System.IO.IOException`, which is the possible exception.
I would guess the tool tips are slightly broken in that it doesn't list the exception class name or put it on a new line.
There you go, simple thing to contribute a fix for!

#20What "I/O error occurred"? I mean the IntelliSense hint on the screenshot.
That's what an IOException means. I suspect the hint text stems from a very minimal XML parse of the documentation.
