On MS Windows I generally use mingw because I use a lot of native Windows
programs.
The problem I've found is knowing which port to pick since there are
several systems (mingw, mingw2, gnuwin32 & ezwinports). There's a lot of
overlap in the programs they provide
Eli, what's the advantage of your ezwinports over the ports provided by
others?
