I'm fairly sure MonoDevelop can't open .vcxproj files. They have their own .cproj format for C/C++. But either way, the project is for Visual Studio. Surely the DMD VS projects don't work in MonoDevelop either? I just wanted to see parity with the DMD project files. What do the DMD devs who use VS do when working on phobos? Like, 9 out of 10 times I think I might do some work on phobos, I remember there's no project files and go and do something else.
