Licensing
Any thoughts on how SQL Prompt ADS will be licensed in the future? Totally free? Bundled with SQL Prompt SSMS? Standalone paid-for license? I always thought SQL Prompt was a bit expensive and could...
Feature Requests
I'm very excited for future development of SQL Prompt within ADS. I've been using SQL Prompt since it was PromptSQL in Query Analyzer. I'm happy to ditch SSMS as it has always been slow, bulky, and...
Snippet Format
I noticed the snippet format now conforms to Visual Studio snippets. Are there plans in the future to support things like Surround With or Custom Literals?
Agreed. Much faster in all areas. I find especially metadata is read much quicker and metadata changes are read almost instanteously. Great work! / comments

I've run across the same thing, I tend to use a lot of GOs in my scripts and it's a big annoyance to type
DROP PROC SomeProc
GO{enter}
expecting to drop to the next line and instead GOTO is inserted. The problem with the built in SQL Prompt GO keyword completion is that it isn't available in all contexts, usually I only see it after a USE statement.
Here's a workaround for the GOTO problem:
Create a snippet with the Shortcut = GO and the Code = GO. Snippets are always available in any context. So even if the GO snippet is invoked after typing GO{enter} the end result will still be a GO. At most the carriage return might be eaten but you can also embed the carriage return in the GO snippet if this is a problem. / comments

USE Database quirk
This applies to both SQL Prompt 3.1 and 3.5. I don't know why I waited until now to report this; It's pretty minor though.
If I start out with a new query window and I type in a use database statem...
Options from the Tray Icon
This is a handy feature however I found that when I open it my options reset to the default. Even if all I do is open the Options dialog then immediately cancel my options are reset. Accessing the ...
