When I try to run my Mono C# programs in MonoDevelop on an external console, I get the following error.

It runs on windows's regular "cmd" console when I debug with input working as well.

I've tested an older version of mono and this feature worked. (Note I get this error on both Windoows Vista, Windows 7, and Mac OS X).

Any ideas on how to give it that "filename"? I thought maybe beta 2 would fix this but I guess not. :P

+1  A: 

I'm pretty sure that MonoDevelop uses xterm & bash for the "external console", which won't work on Windows, and might have problems on Mac. It needs to be abstracted out to use native consoles for these different platforms.

I remember this working on 2.0 or an earlier version on OS X.

I just checked, and it works fine on OS X for me. Maybe you don't have X11 installed?
