using System.IO;                //for detect OS
using Microsoft.Win32;

class Test {
	public static void Main() {
		OperatingSystem os = Environment.OSVersion;
		if(os.Platform.ToString().ToUpper().StartsWith("WIN"))
		{
			RegistryKey rkHKLM = Registry.LocalMachine;
			RegistryKey rkRun;
			try
			{
				rkRun = rkHKLM.OpenSubKey("Software\\Novell\\Mono",false);

				string version = rkRun.GetValue("DefaultCLR").ToString();

				rkRun = rkHKLM.OpenSubKey("Software\\Novell\\Mono\\" + version,false);

				Console.WriteLine (rkRun.GetValue("SdkInstallRoot"));
