mono: Run a .NET assembly in debug mode.
$ mono --debug ${path-to-program-exe}
try on your machine

The command "mono --debug ${path-to-program-exe}" is used to run a program using the Mono framework with debug information enabled. Here is an explanation of each part of the command:

  • "mono": This is the command used to run programs using the Mono framework. Mono is an open-source implementation of the .NET framework that allows developers to run .NET applications on platforms other than Windows, such as Linux, macOS, and others.

  • "--debug": This flag instructs Mono to enable debugging information for the program being executed. Debugging information includes additional data that helps developers identify and fix issues in their code while it is running.

  • "${path-to-program-exe}": This is a placeholder for the actual path to the executable file of the program you want to run. You need to replace "${path-to-program-exe}" with the actual path to the .exe file of your program on your system. The .exe file contains the compiled code that can be executed by the Mono runtime.

By running the "mono --debug ${path-to-program-exe}" command, you will execute the specified program under the Mono framework with debugging information enabled. This allows you to monitor and analyze the program's behavior, inspect variables, set breakpoints, and debug any issues that may arise during its execution.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
