How to make a Console application work from an empty project in Xamarin studio

.net, c#, mono, xamarin-studio

Solution

You need to check the "Run on external console" checkbox from `Project Options -> Run -> General`.

Problem

I've created a simple "hello world" application, starting from an Empty Project. The code just prints a hello world ``` public class Test_Class { public static void Main() { System.Console.WriteLine ("hello, world"); } } ``` But no console window pops up when I run the application. How do I make the console show?
