I haven't checked it out recently, and it has some major caveats (e.g. don't try it on a 16MB machine, you'll be sorry..) It has a GUI interface to the GNU Debugger, although I don't know if there's an IDE. It sports multitasking, fork and exec, and a lot of other UNIX goodies. If you want to port UNIX stuff over to Win32 with a minimum of mess, GNU-Win32 is one way to go, although it's not perfect. Second, there's OpenNT from (I forgot the name of the company). It's a POSIX-compliant OS and development environment for, you guessed it, Windows NT. I filled out a form on their web page and they sent me a functional evaluation CDROM (very nice, considering that I live in Asia). It's expired now, although I can still play with it by resetting my computer's clock. This is a mostly-complete UNIX development environment for Windows NT, including X11 and Motif libraries (although not with the evaluation version). ------------------------------------------------------------------- Orlando Alcantara Andico Email: orly AT dilnet DOT upd DOT edu DOT ph ICBM: 14 30 00 N 120 59 00 E POTS: (+632) 932-2385 "If I shed a tear I won't cage it, I won't fear love, and if I feel a rage I won't deny it, I won't fear love." - Sarah Mclachlan
