Create a command line version of this application.
A command line version allows use of any editor. The errors shown should be a form that Visual Studio and other dev tools will recognise when executing the build diagram.

I voted for this with the assumption that this would be a *local* program (i.e. it wouldn't need to contact the server in order to generate the diagrams.)

Agree with murad.m. It would be nice if the tool could be cross-platform and also be able to be used in an automated fashion, e.g. during a build-cycle a call would be made to the application, providing the file containing the diagram "code" or a directory which contains numerous "diagram code" files (option to recurse as well). An output parameter would also be useful to specify where the generated images would go (their name would correspond to the name of the "diagram code" file, less the extension, and any directory recursion operations would result in a similar structure in the root of the given output directory.

Command line tool should not be limited to Windows platform only.
