[Mono-list] Running Windows.Forms app under mono?

[John Sohn]

Please look at the README in the mcs/class/System.Windows.Forms
directory. You will need to use the monostub WineLib application to
start your Windows.Forms application, make some changes to the
etc/mono/config file, and build Mono with garbage collection disabled. I
just checked in some changes recently to run with the latest Mono and
Wine releases.

I have to warn you though at this point there is still a lot of work to
do in the System.Windows.Forms namespace.
