Ah. On fedora 19 , I had monodoc installed but there is 
mono-tools-monodoc which contains the monodoc command. So, I now get a 
help window.

But, it is unsettling to be mixing packages from separate installations.

I think mono-tools contains that command. I will have to check again but 
I had some problem building that led me to set the task aside.

Thanks,
