+Mono Debugger support for MonoDevelop.
+
+The Mono Soft Debugger is a new debugging framework for Mono. Unlike regular
+debuggers which act as all-knowing and controlling programs that control a
+separate process, the Mono Soft Debugger is actually a cooperative debugger
+that is built into the Mono runtime.
+
+Applications communicate with the Mono runtime and request debugging
+operations to be performed on the target process.
+
+The Mono Soft Debugger first became available with Mono 2.6 and is primarily
+used today with Mono on the iPhone (http://monotouch.net) and is used from
+the MonoDevelop IDE (http://monodevelop.com).
+
+This requires monodevelop and mono-debugger.
