One possible fix for this may be to install Make for Windows from:
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/make.htm

I installed it using the `Complete package, except source` Setup link and everything seems to work. The location of the executable has to be added to the path manually, but this might provide a reasonable short-term hack for this.

Best,
Ethan

Hi all-

Did one of you who taught this recently come up with a fix? I've filed an issue on the installer - make is in the .swc/bin, which is in the Windows users' path. But typing make at the command line simply doesn't work. We've tried downloading the executeable Trevor linked and putting it in the ~/.swc/bin, but we still get the


$LOCATION/.swc/bin/make.exe: error while loading shared libraries: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

error.


Thanks!
April

    And as a quick fix, dropping [1] (SHA-1 sum

    you working (that's all the SWC Windows Installer does, anyway).

    Cheers,
