Uhm, forget my code, since I looked into DefaultTraceListener.cs where
everything is available already. There is MessageBox code (including Robert's
idea of always using the main thread), but it does not work usually due to the
AssertUiEnabled flag, that by default seems to be off (is this the same
behaviour as MS?). If the default trace listener is added with this flag on,
things work in MONO.

Example code:

DefaultTraceListener d = new DefaultTraceListener();
d.AssertUiEnabled = true;
Debug.Listeners.Add(d);


By the way: while I had a look at your code I found something that might be of
interest. There are some definitions in TraceListener.cs that use the
ThreadStatic attribute. As far as I know, ThreadStaticAttribute works only with
static fields, so your code won't work (there should be a compiler warning for
this issue):

        [ThreadStatic]
        private int indentLevel = 0;

        [ThreadStatic]
        private int indentSize = 4;

#if NET_2_0
        [ThreadStatic]
        private StringDictionary attributes = new StringDictionary ();
        [ThreadStatic]
        private TraceFilter filter;
        [ThreadStatic]
        private TraceOptions options;
#endif

Use:

private static int indentLevel = 0;

..
