[Mono-list] Help in dealing with Mono/.NET PInvoke issue

Sorry, I just realized that I have been abusing the ASCX term.

What I'm calling ASCX are actually simple System.Windows.Forms.UserControl
classes. For example:

    public partial class ascx_LogViewer : UserControl

On your idea to use MonoDevelop,  it is now multi-platform right? If so,
that could be an option. I've downloaded the code and will take a look. Is
there an 'starters guide for MonoDevelop code'?

Basically, the first think that I am after is just the MonoDeveloper GUI
shell and the ability to add new tabs using the UserControl classes that I
have already developed.

In the past I tried the SharpDevelop GUI but found it to be too messy and
complicated to reuse.
