re (a), nice! Not needing the extra shell malarkey is a big help. One less toolchain :D I have tried in the past just unpacking the pre-compiled official erlang release and putting it in the right place beside the source tarball, which also worked but I'm a little nervous about whether that is a legitimate approach or not. That could get us down to just erlang + MSVC which would be a huge step forwards in simplicity. A+ Dave
