I'm new to mono and CSharp, although I'm fluent in C and Java. I recently
installed the Win32 version of Mono 0.26 on a Win98SE machine, and tried
some simple compilations: a simple console "Hello world" program and a
couple of notepads, namely:

http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/1/NotePadAM.asp
http://www.hewener.net/projekte.htm#sdenotepad

All appear to work (despite the fact that the docs say that Win2K or XP
are required for lack of sufficient Unicode support in '98): the three
binaries run as expected on Win98.

Win98SE is in better shape than plain Win98, but Unicode problems do will appear...
Mono has lots of Unicode-handling logic in itself, it doesn't just wrap OS specific functions, but...


HOWEVER, only one of the three (namely, the "Hello world" console
application) runs correctly on my PocketPC PDA (running Windows Mobile
2003): the two GUI apps die without any warning, despite the fact that at
least the second one was coded explicitely for PocketPC.

Unsurprisingly,


I also tried, during compilation, to reference assemblies belonging to the
"Microsoft .NET Compact Framework 1.0 SP1", with command lines such as:

mcs -L "C:\Program Files\Microsoft .NET Compact Framework 1.0
SP1\netcf.core.ppc3.ARM.cab" -L "C:\Program Files\Microsoft .NET Compact
Framework 1.0 SP1\netcf.all.wce4.ARMV4.cab" -r system -r system.drawing -r
system.windows.forms -o notepad.exe  notepad.cs

I think mcs won't know how to extract assemblies from cabinet files, are you sure csc is able to do that?


Whatsoever, extract the assemblies (.dll files) from the cabinet files, to a temporary directory and reference them individually, and don�t forget /nostdlib to avoid collisions.
