[MonoDevelop] Help needed to diagnose MonoDevelop startup problems

[Susan Mackay]

Michael,

Thank you for your response (and sorry about my delay).

I saw the DLLNotFoundException when I read my entry in the list - oops I
should have checked for that; I guess it just got lost in the flood of other
messages. I've fixed that but the other error messages remain.

I any Max users have any experience with this I would love to hear from them
- the underlying Unix for OS X normally takes any software written for the
generic Unix platforms.

Thanks

Susan
