I am developing a Windows Forms application for Mono platform. I need to use a third-party software which has a command-line interface accessible through terminal. How can I interact with that app from my application?

The
Processclass will allow you to start and interact with a command line application.Use
ProcessStartInfoto setup the process and how you would interact with it (UseShellExecute = false;then ensure redirection of standard input/output/error).See this simple example on the mono site.
