question: XML documentation and compiler flags

Hello,

I would like to know how to generate XML documentation from
C# XML documentation comments using the Mono C# compiler.
Basically, with the .NET C# compiler it is possible to
generate such documentation with a command such as:

csc /doc:HowdyPartner.xml HowdyPartner.cs

How is this done with the Mono C# (mcs) compiler?

Out of curiosity, are such compiler flags as /doc: for
generating documentation and /help for displaying a list
of compiler flags part of the specification/standard?
Most language standards don't include compiler flags
as part of the document. I would like to know whether
this is also the case for the C# specification submitted
to ECMA for standardization.

Thank you for your replies,

Neil

I don't know off hand, try mcs --help and see what comes out. I imagine its
something similar. It also seems to be they were considering using csc
identical parameters, but I don't know for sure.

No, I do not believe the spec defines any standards.
