Hi Hunter, I'm in the same situation. I did a windows program that uses Aspell as a spell checker. I'm also using the old Windows binary. I do have a C compiler, MSVC, but from past experience, building one of these unix projects on MSVC can sometimes be a tricky business indeed, with tiny incompatibilities that can trip one up and take ages to figure out sometimes - and I couldn't even consider it for Aspell as I work in pure C rather than C++.
Anyway looks as if we windows users just have to wait and see if anyone completes a new build for Windows to try it out. I'm looking for a proper Windows type dll too, because users of my program won't have Redhat or Cygwin or anything, only Windows, and one can't expect them to install a linux type shell or appropriate binaries in order to run my tiny program. Most will be novice Windows users anyway. Meanwhile the old binary does at least do its job and give spell checking capabilities, which my program wouldn't have otherwise, and I'm grateful for that. I'm interested in any news of a newer Windows port of Aspell available for download. But just thought I'd add my voice for what it is worth, so that anyone who is working on a Windows build will know that their efforts are appreciated.
