It is a historical difference. C-source code lives in `mono', C#-source code lives in `mcs'. To simplify the lives of those who do not have an existing working environment the compiled and portable binaries from the module `mcs' are shipped in pre-compiled form in the `mono' module. Someone compiling and installing mono only needs the `mono-XXX.tar.gz' package. The `mcs-XXX' package is only needed if you need to rebuild yourself any of the C#-based code. _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
