[MonoDevelop] Can't seem to create a new window in a C# project

[Scott Stephens]

The first thing I would suggest is upgrading to a newer version of
MonoDevelop.  It looks like you're using 2.8.8.4, which is a pretty old
version.  Unfortunately, packaging efforts haven't nearly kept up with
development efforts, so only out of date packages are available for a lot
of platforms.  Building from the github source isn't that tough though:
