Autoconf / Automake are probably best used with Cygwin or with Msys, in
particular because there is as yet no port of Bash to MS-Windows. I always
use Cygwin Bash with the Cygwin ports of Autoconf / Automake.

Onderwerp: [GnuWin32-Users] Using autoconf/automake with MinGW and
ActivePerl


> Hi,

to

> The problem seem to be the system calls - ActivePerl uses the win32 shell
to

to
