Not true. There have been more than one attempt by more than one person including Ales and me. See the various threads in the archive of this list. The most recent, most successful is Cesars efforts. You keep asking why there are dedicated debian, gentoo and fedora packagers, but none for MSwin. Well, preparing a windows port is nowhere near to the task of preparing it for an OS that is native to the project. So please stop complaining about windows users. ---<(kaimartin)>--- _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
