[Mono-osx] Xcode 3 C# syntax coloring

cool. those work, as did my Chrome ones after i put em into that folder 
(still cant get e to work as part of a compiled .pblugin, but thats for 
later).

Now the next step (besides fleshing these out), i guess, is getting the 
build to work again. the old .pbbuildrules and co no longer seem to work 
(i keep getting "foo.pas - no buld rule for target mono", even though 
there shold be)...

We should cordinate to get all the language-agnostic Mono (like 
defiitions for "compiled.mono.executable" and that kinda stuff) items 
into files that can be shared with C# and Chrome without to much 
duplication. Maybe the same can be done for the actual plugin ObjC code 
that invokes the compiler (or generates its command line), etc....

Yours,
