I've gotten most things running, including the loadbale modules, and
messed up paths previously reported, and I've fixed up the install
scripts. Major problems still include the ctrl-c handling (though that
is partially fixed), the readline stuff (though I've build a buggy
readline 5.0 under mingw), and problem I've having with the permissions
of _popen under W32 (which is notable preventing texinfo help from
being displayed).. There is also a problem of recognizing that an rxvt
is interactive that is probably related to the readline issues, though
that can be worked around by using cmd.exe instead..
Once those are fixed it will be time to show what I have to a larger
audience... Lack of time, including a personal absence of more then 2
weeks for vacations has made progress slow though, so don't hold your
breath.
Cheers
David
