Dear all,

Through the information on the wxWindows GUI package I ran into the
the rsxwdk libraries which seem to be an answer to the question: how to
get rid of the Borland/MickeySoft compilers and still being able to
build a MS-Windows interface. Together with the rsxwdk libraries, this
would make a portable (X/MS/Mac?)Windows interface with my favorite
compiler (gcc) and IDE (make :-).

Unfortunately I couldn't get the thing working so now I'm hoping for
hints from you folks.

I used the rsxwdk2b.zip from the net and after going throught the
installation instructions tried to combine it with:
-djgpp 1.11m? -> compiling and linking works fine, but the 'executables'
result in a general protection fault on startup.
-djgpp 1.12m4 -> compiling works fine, but the linker/loader (ld) aborts
with an "cannot load symbol table: out of memory" message. I tried this
from both DOS and a DOS-box under windows but no avail. I could go for
extra memory but there is plenty of diskspace available so it doesn't
look like there is a memory shortage.

Any hints?

	Arjen
