There are times when I would like to be able to have something like this on a usb stick and run it from someone's machine as a diagnostic tool, or something without having to install it. Particularly if there are company restrictions for installing software on some machines.
On the other hand, for my development machine, I would be ecstatic to have an installer that would simplify the process of adding and removing this software.
So, if you make an installer, that would be great, but I would like the option to still run (at least the free version) without an installer. / comments

I love what Lutz Roeder has done, but I see lots of ways that this application could be improved for developers in a way that many would be willing to pay for.
I'm glad that Redgate is committing to keeping the core of it for free and I hope that they will maintain the free version as well (fix bugs, keep it in line with current frameworks, etc).
I have already submitted some updates that I would pay for and I am excited to see what other folks would like to see it do.
Anyway, I totally see this as a viable commercial venture.
I agree about the UI thing. Get a better UI and integrate it with VS if possible. Even though many tolerate it, there are plenty that would pay for the better interface (if it really is better, that is). / comments

Support for newer frameworks
This would be a good one to keep in the free version of the application.
I think it would be good for reflector to support all of the different .net frameworks.
This should be done, on principle, t...
Side by side translation
I know that translation is my big kick with Reflector, but it this has been it's biggest use for me.
Anyway, I think it would be great if I could take code written in one language and reflect it ou...
IDE integration
I would love it if Reflector would integrate into Visual Studio.
It could really be helpful if you could highlight some code and then view it in, say, IL code, or some other code that perhaps you a...
Additional Language Support
I know that the .Net framework supports additional .Net language compilation. For instance, I am aware of a language called NetCobol, which it is my understanding compiles down to IL code.
I believ...
This would indeed, be useful. It would also be good if this could be referenced, somehow, by apps. For instance. In Visual Studio, it is possible to say which compare tools are used to compare certain types of files. I would love to be able to add .dll to the list and have it open in reflector with a side by side comparison. That way, if, for some reason, we have lost the source for a particular library we've created, but we have multiple versions of the code. We can see what, essentially, has changed in that code. / comments
