Since quite a while I see a hint here or there that someone wants to compile a Windows version containing some of the gEDA modules. But somehow that seems to always fizzle. Is there a realistic chance we'll ever see a somewhat "official" Windows version? Maybe along the lines of "Here, use it but please don't call us for support." I know that it's possible to compile it for Windows. However, lots of us are more hardware guys, don't have compilers, don't have much experience doing that, and would need something that installs itself just like other CAD software does. After that we could be productive for the group by contributing library models, tricks and so on. For many reasons hardware guys can't migrate away from Windows, mainly because things like the mechanical CAD, beamfield simulators and the like would then quit. -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ _______________________________________________ geda-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-dev
