I've updated the Mono programming environment on Athena to 1.9.1 for Linux.
Mono is an Open Source implementation of Microsoft's .NET. From my message
to users:
Mono on Athena for Linux along with the usual set of compilers (C#,
Visual Basic, Boo) and utilities has been updated to 1.9.1 and made
the default. We are continuing to use a binary archive which gets
around many compilation issues. To run it:
setup mono
followed by one of the many mono commands:
mcs file.cs (and so on)
monodevelop no longer works; the release notes mention that it may not
work on various distributions for a variety of reasons. The Sun
version remains at 1.2.4.
For a more detailed description please see
http://web.mit.edu/mono_v1.9.1/README.athena, and examples in
subdirectories at the top level of the mono_v1.9.1 locker.
