RSXNTDJ's code is not the problem, it's the way it has been presented and the amount of things that the author has not bothered to do/fix. Mainly the installation is the problem for people and the way it integrates with gcc. I think it was better in RSXNTDJ 1.3.1 where you just had to supply a -Zwin32 option to gcc to compile windows programs. The new wrapper gccw32 is not a bad idea, but it breaks other programs like grc when you try to make resources because it can't find the include files. -- Johan Venter ICQ 3643877 surf.to/djgppig
