Couldn't `typeof(int).Assembly.Location` (or some equivalent Assembly property) be used? This would get the path to mscorlib.dll, which could be used to ascertain the installation $prefix, leading to the `mono' executable. Of course this could be foiled if `configure --bin-path=...` were used (so that it wasn't $prefix/bin), or if $prefix/lib/mono wasn't the GAC location, but this would probably work 99% of the time... - Jon _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
