[Mono-osx] Getting started with System.Windows.Forms

[John David Duncan]

Hi,

I'm trying to work with Windows Forms code.

I followed the Hello, World example from http://oepapel.blogspot.com/  
but I haven't had any luck, either with Mono 1.1.13 or 1.1.15.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,

JD
