[MonoMan MonoMan]

Hi Francisco
Thanx a lot for your elaborative mail.i understood the concept behind your 
addin
It is very nice mean to verify the managed code on mono runtime.
I am very sorry , i dont know the procedure to debug managed code on mono 
runtime with the help of your addin.

i tried a lot on web but i was able to get only following link

http://www.mfconsulting.com/product/gtks-inst4win/vsprj2make_Proposal.html

If any document exists which describes debugging managed code on mono 
runtime with the help of your addin,plz help me by sending link for it.
Thanx in advance
