[Mono-list] csharp REPL scripts

[Steve Lessard]

I read in the release notes for Mono 2.10 
(http://www.mono-project.com/Release_Notes_Mono_2.10) that "the C# REPL now can 
be used as a program to run C# scripts in Unix. Your Unix scripts can now 
contain as their first line the #!/usr/bin/csharp line which allows you to 
create C# scripts that can be treated like programs."  The release notes give 
this very simple demo:

$ echo '#!/usr/bin/csharp' > demo
$ echo 'System.Console.WriteLine (10+2);' >> demo
$ chmod +x demo
$ ./demo
12
$  

So I tried it on my machine running 2.10.1, but it always fails with a syntax 
error. (See below.) Is anyone else able to run this simple demo of the C# REPL?

tools$ echo '#!/usr/bin/csharp' > demo
tools$ echo 'System.Console.WriteLine (10+2);' >> demo
tools$ chmod +x demo
tools$ ./demo 
./demo: line 2: syntax error near unexpected token `10+2'
./demo: line 2: `System.Console.WriteLine (10+2);'

tools$
