[Mono-list] Installing multiiple Versions of mono

[Philipp Knecht]

Thanks Jon

That cleared things up. Didn't know that there exists
a GAC in mono. Is mono using strongnamed assemblies?

One more question (remember i'm a newbie and learning
linux on my own)

Where can i set those enviroment variables (defaults)?

- .bashrc
- or profile.bashrc
- or rc.2,rc.3,... (runlevel scripts)
- or init.d
- somewhere else

I'm using putty with winxp to handle the
ubuntu-console so i don't wanna use any "click click
hooray!" stuff ;-) 

i'm still a bit groggy with console commands but feel
this is the way to go.
