monodis: List the references of an assembly.
$ monodis --assemblyref ${path-to-assembly-exe}

The "monodis" command is a utility provided by Mono, which is an open-source implementation of Microsoft's .NET Framework. It is used for disassembling .NET assemblies into a more human-readable representation.
The command "monodis --assemblyref ${path-to-assembly-exe}" is used to display the assembly references of a .NET assembly. Here's a breakdown of the different parts of the command:
- "monodis": This is the name of the command utility itself.
- "--assemblyref": This is a specific option that is used to indicate that we want to retrieve the assembly references.
- "${path-to-assembly-exe}": This is a placeholder for the actual path to the .NET assembly executable file (
.exe
). You need to replace it with the path to the assembly file you want to disassemble.
When you run this command with the correct path to the assembly, Mono will disassemble the assembly and display the assembly references, which are other assemblies that the target assembly depends on. This provides information about the external libraries and components that the target assembly relies on for its functionality.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
