How to use F# with mono on linux?

Question

I have had difficulty figuring out how to use F# on Linux - I would really appreciate help.

Answer 1

Well, My box: Ubuntu, mono, fsharp, emacs and fsharp-mode

with fsharp-mode you have

1. highlighting
2. interactive console
3. emacs :-).

Also, you can try to install .net 2.0 on wine (with winetricks for example) together with sharpdevelop 2.2.

Personaly i've decided to use emacs and fsharp-mode.

UPDATE:

another option is to use regular editor such as kate in OCaml mode but it can be inconvenient due to differences between languages.
