Since I was not satisfied with my C# application not working on Linux or Mac, I installed MonoDevelop in hopes of porting my application to Mono for cross-platformability.

However, I don't know how how to use MonoDevelop to accomplish this task. There's no instructions in FAQ or Documentation.

Any idea how to do it?

From MonoDevelop FAQ:

Can I import my Visual Studio 2K5+ project into MonoDevelop?

MonoDevelop can open, manipulate and save MSBuild-based projects directly in most cases. In fact, since MonoDevelop 2.0 the default project format has been VS2008-style MSBuild projects, but VS2005 and VS2010 formats are also handled.

Google is still your friend:
