yes, i am! If anyone wrote and compiled a php-library or if anyone have seen a HOWTO on php-libraries, then please respond, would be nice, i get nothing off of google and the small intro on php.net didn't 'satisfy' me=i didn't understand it fully :) >> as of now, i've downloaded the php-source and cygwin (which i don't know >> exactly what it does except for porting some unix-tools to windows (grep)). >> I've tried reading the directives by php.net on how to compile a library, >> but that didn't get me anywhere. > > You should really consider moving (or at least have a secondary partition) > to linux.
