[Mono-list] How To Start Writing Code in Monodevelop IDE?

[Costantino Pipero]

To keep the console up (what you call a "dosbox") until you press <Enter> 
add a ReadLine() call to you code. Like this:

// Namespace Declaration
using System;

// Program start class
class WelcomeCSS
{
   // Main begins program execution.
   static void Main()
   {
       // Write to console
        Console.WriteLine("Welcome to the C# Station Tutorial!");
        Console.ReadLine();
    }
 }


In MonoDevelop there is also an option to make the console projects run 
until you press enter in the project's options, but for now the ReadLine() 
should be sufficient for you.
