No installer. RubenVB's latest build for x64. But the problem isn't mingw, it is that the windows cmd line interprets this: `wbld/translate.exe` as a call to `wbld` with parameter `/translate.exe`. There is no problem with forward slashes in the parameters of a command, just in the command itself. There used to be 4 lines that substituted a double forward slash for all backslashes in the 4 command macros (TRANSLATE, VERSION, MAKEHEADERS, MAKEINDEX), which don't do the substitution anymore.
While I am at it, there is a comment in the makefile about not being able to use del and copy, and therefore using rm and cp. I used del and copy insted of them and it worked fine, so I don't know what the comment is referring to. I am using win7 x64, plain old `cmd`.
