New issue 809 by v.villenave: Support for older MS systems is broken http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=809 While LilyPond 2.10 series reportedly worked on Windows 98 and NT systems, as of 2.12 series, this is obviously no longer the case. A user named Arnold Wendl reported that lily called the GetLongPathNameA system function, which is not supported by the kernel.dll library on Windows NT: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2009-02/msg00021.html While we don't advertise win98 support (that actually seems to have been broken in 2.6 series), the download page does still mention win NT. So, maybe it's time to remove this OS (or fix Lily -- though I hardly see it happening). -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
