2d9c4ff solved one problem but now there is another one:

The type referenced through 'System.Object' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced. You must add a reference to assembly 'System.Runtime'."

It seems I have to fork FSharp.Formatting and make it add reference to it (and perhaps other default assemblies)

[NatElkins]

@cannorin Have you considered adding explicit references to a version of FSharp.Core? I do this in all of my projects.

[cannorin]

@NatElkins yes but it didn't help. btw the problem that Yaaf fails to find FSharp.Core is now solved, and a new problem is that FSI does not load System.Runtime automatically.

[cannorin]

The main problem is that .NET Core support of FSI is not yet complete, so I will

1. try to list up the default reference FSI on Mono would use and pass them to the netcore FSI.

2. if that fails, try to get rid of FSI. I can obtain the entire source code, so it might be possible to compile them together and then extract the information.

3. if that also fails, stick to Mono until netcore FSI is ready.
