NgrokSharp has support for this, GUI work is only needed

Easier recreate tunnels with previously entered data.

As a user when you go into the "new tunnel" and fills the information. It would nice that there is a way to save the details. So next time the user want to create the tunnel again with previously entered data, thereby making it easier to create again.

See #1 for the original feature request.

Warn users about the 2 hour limits, if no token

Start NgrokGUI with windows

Make a setting for NgrokGUI, that allows users to run the program on startup.

Custom domain support

This is a great tool, but currently of no use to me. I have a paid ngrok account and do not use subdomains, but rather custom domains
i.e. bninding a tunnel to a fully qualified domain name that I control like "web.maydomain.com"

https://ngrok.com/docs/guides/how-to-set-up-a-custom-domain

Please add support for custom domains - its just another command-line switch like "ngrok http[s] -hostname=foo.example.com [port]".

feature request

• store port and protocol records
• publish generated URL by a restful call
• auto start on windows start

Serialize tunnels, so previously created tunnels, stay in list between restarts.

So previously created tunnels, stay in list between restarts.
This should make it easier for users to reuse tunnels that have been created before.

The status bar should display, what data center you are connected to.

Add subdomain option

thank you for nice app.
please add subdomain option like:
ngrok http -subdomain domainName 80

thank you,

Trigger on tunnel created, for external programs

After a tunnel has been created, there should be some kind of triggering to "tell the external programs, that now a new tunnel has been made". The trigger could be a http post or any kind of triggering could work, so other integrations can be done by simple scripting.

Please see issue #1 for the original feature request.
