New with c#

[Martin VavpotiÄ]

Hello. I have recently begun to program with c#. I've done some
programming with Java before so I'm not a total noob but I do have
some questions.

I use Textpad to compile the code and that generates an .exe file.
When I double-click that or use Run option of Windows, I see a MS Dos
Prompt for a milisecond. I need to make the Prompt Window to stay open
until I close it. How do I do that?

while (Console.ReadKey() == null) ;

Just:

Console.ReadKey();

should be fine.

ReadKey is blocking.
