Re: [Chicken-users] Chicken-iup on Windows

I have resolved the issue - Matt W. clarified some of the details on the installer for windows, and chicken-install is working properly after a re-install.

Thanks,

> I've been trying to use chicken scheme on windows - I am a complete n00b, but it looks awesome.  I was unable to make it, so I tried the pre-compiled binary.  I had difficulty sourcing installed libraries until I tracked down the CHICKEN_REPOSITORY env var and set it to the local lib\chicken\5 dir.

Which version did you try?

Can you show us the error message (or the prompt you get)?
