[MonoDevelop] Importing project.

[Todd Berman]

Hmm, there actually is a way that will at least save you some time.

Create a new project in the folder where your current files exist. Right 
click on the project node in the solution browser. Go to project 
options. In that dialog, there is a checkbox that says something like 
'Search for new files'. Click that, and reload the solution.

Its not the best way, and it doesnt make the most sense, but it will 
help you out a bit.
