[Mono-list] colour console output?

Hi,

Mono 2.0 will mark 2.0 branch of Mono. Mono 1.1 (current branch) already has
a lot of MS.NET 2.0 features. For example the runtime should support all
MS.NET 2.0 features. The class library however is far from complete. It is
on active development and has a lot of MS.NET 2.0 features but a lot of 2.0
classes/methods/features are not complete yet.

You should use gmcs for 2.0 assemblies as it has generics support and emits
MS.NET 2.0 compatible assemblies while mcs has no generics support and emits
MS.NET 1.1 compatible assemblies.
