[Mono-list] Command line parsing

[Chris Seaton]

Ah yeah, I found the problem.

I'm using a wrapper shell script to run mono on my program.

#!/bin/sh
mono foo.exe $@

When I call the script with

a "b c"

$@ comes out as

a b c

Lots of people use these wrapper scripts, don't they? How should I be  
doing it?

Thanks
