Hi,

I'm after a good obfuscator for .NET that has the following features:

 - FREE, or very, very cheap.
 - can handle a lot of interdependent assemblies in one operation.
 - can take assembly details from a wildcard or from an xml file.  (I
don't want to have to pass 50-odd arguments on the command line).
 - doesn't take a million years to run
 - can be run from the command line (I want to call it from my NAnt
build)

Preferably, it'll also have some of these features:

 - control flow obfuscation
 - cross-assembly obfuscation

I've tried a few, but none really fit these requirements.  Dotfuscator
Community Edition needs Visual Studio to be open when it runs, and the
full editions are too expensive (that also goes for Salamander).  Aspose
doesn't really have a command line interface as far as I can see, and
the free QND one can only do one file at a time (and dependent
assemblies fail to load because they can't find the types they need in
order to work).

The best I've come up with so far is to run devenv.exe during my build
and then use the Dotfuscator Community Edition.  Horrible, absolutely
horrible, but what can you do?

Does anyone have a better alternative?

Thanks!
