Re: Tools under Windows

[BRM]

Thanks all for the help. It´s been very insightful.

I´ve been playing around with it a bit today, mostly
MSYS, and have thus far only had one issue with it -
cl won´t compile the program because of bad parameters
being passed to it (since MSYS uses // instead of /).
(Not sure if that´s an issue for you guys, mingw-msys,
or the cccl guy; advice appreciated.)

Well...I´ve got most of the rest of the month to learn
this. I don´t need it on my project until sometime in
January when I have to write all the scripts. :->

Thanks,

Ben
