It's pretty safe to install Msys/mingw - it doesn't need to acces any system locations or anything, so you can install it well away from the "important" stuff with no ill effects. > The HIMC i recognised as windows related yes, thing is that error also > came on my home computer and a laptop, i think it is linking issue > myself, when i installed 1.1 using codeblocks when i investigated the > linker options i found quite a few windows elements linked > by default, > so i will replicate that if my new found shell tool fails me! OK - you need to link the right libs, in the right order, or things won't work. Note that the order of linking is significant here; things that need a function (from a lib) must be listed before the lib that provides the function... > mysys reminds me a little of the old UNIX days many moons ago when i > did a work placement, guess i should have stuck at it! It should do - it's a posix shell (ash, I think, but posix-like anyway) so should look just like a unix shell.
