RE: [Mono-list] mono

Hello,   The .NET Framework from Microsoft is about 25 MB, comparable to the size of the Mono .NET Framework. That’s all you need to program and both are free. Visual Studio .NET is an Integrated Development Environment that you can use to program instead of some text editor and costs a couple of bucks J. VS.NET is much more then the .NET framework, it contains a large amount of tools and productivity enhancements to increase a programmer’s productivity.   Greetz, -- Rob.   From: Hermann und Karin Fischer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 26, 2003 4:15 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Mono-list] mono   Hi.   I wanted to work with mono on my new installed linux machine. I'm using a Debian distribution. So I downloaded all files from http://www.debianplanet.org/mono/dists/stable/main/binary-all/. I wondered because the size of all files were below 10MB.   So I thought to contact you to ask : "That's all"? Microsoft uses gigabytes to install the complete Visual Studio .NET. Can you tell me, please ?   Thanks, Hermann Fischer
