are there any C# compilers out there that are small enough to fit on a flash drive?

i'm using a portable version of notepad++ right now, but there is no compile function. i would really like a way to run programs when i'm on the go.

That question is really vague. It really depends on your flash drive and your platform.

Just save yourself the hassle, program on a Unix/Linux machine and use GCC. It's free and it comes with the OS.

Dev C++ is a good one.
Plus it offers a pretty friendly interface.

Yeah DevC++ isn't too bloated and you can more than easily fit it on a pen drive these days. That's what I used to use back in the day.

As much as I'm as big a Linux Evangelist as the next guy, not really helpful to the guy's problem. He needs a portable C# compiler, and that'd be a proprietary microsoft thing.

I'm not sure exactly if there are any nicely stripped down C# compilers, to be honest, sorry.

Oh, dammit, you're right. I don't know why, but for some reason I thought C# was C++.... I really don't know how I made that mistake.
