What were/are you trying to accomplish (outside of just "install monodevelop", which I had never heard of before today)? Is your objective simply to install a good programmer's editor/IDE? If so, for what programming language? For example, perhaps something like vi, emacs, geany or eclipse would meet your needs, depending on what your needs actually are. Is your objective to do mono API programming using something like C#? If so, is there any particular reason why you want to use that instead of some other programming language? If you tell us what you're really trying to do, perhaps we can give you a recommendation for what your best course of action would be. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com
