Hi Walter;

Did you include the mono libs in you environment path(s)?
If not, open up a terminal and type these individually

export PATH=/opt/mono/bin:$PATH
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/mono/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH  
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/mono/lib/pkgconfig
export MONO_PATH=/opt/mono/lib

(Remember to substitute the path where you installed mono!)

Don't know if this applies to MACs but on linux we have a .bashrc file in
our home directory
where we can add these lines.It's just more convenient this way, so look for
a file like this
in you home directory, it's a hidden file!

Also when compiling from command line use : mcs ProgramName.cs
-pkg:gtk-sharp-2.0 -pkg:etc.

Hope this helps!
