[Mono-list] C typedef to C#

[Everaldo Canuto]

I'm have a experience on this, I'm using and implement fpGUI. 
(http://www.freepascal.org/fpgui/index.html) and my idea is create a 
similar library in C#.
Another similar toolkit is FOX (http://www.fox-toolkit.org/fox.html), 
FOX as developed in C++ and your apparence is like a Windows.

My main purpose is developing a toolkit independent of GTK and QT.
When I will have something functional, I leave a version here.
