[Mono-list] What/Where is "csc.exe"?

[Alexandros Karypidis]

Thanks!

I downloaded the libs and compiler from monolabs and it works ok.  I can 
compile and run "Hello world" and other examples.  I am now trying to 
compile my own mcs (after a checkout of the mcs tree) and am stuck there.

It seems I need some tool called "csc.exe" which does not exist in the 
monolabs binaries:
