We are now using mingw32 verison of gcc. This is nice because then I can crosscompile the module on debian using the mingw32 package.
Are you familiar with the difference between mingw32 and cygwin gcc? I know the complete cygwin environoment provide all the usual unix tools. My vague knowledge about the two gcc version say that mingw32 is for compiling 'pure' win32 apps, while cygwin is trying to create a unix like environment for the programs using cywin.dll. Can I compile python modules that will not require cygwin.dll using the cygwin compiler? > > wonder what program you use to create the windows installer for > > lilypond.

It's Ok. I was more hoping to create an executable that contains solfege and compiled binaries for gtk and pygtk, displaying a message at the end giving the user the url for python 2.1 to install, and create a entry on the start menu and on the desktop. Anyway, a .zip file containing everything, and saying click on setup.bat to this myself in python is not bad either. > Greetings, > Jan. > -- > Jan Nieuwenhuizen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | GNU LilyPond - The music typesetter > http://www.xs4all.nl/~jantien | http://www.lilypond.org > > > _______________________________________________ > Lilypond-devel mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel > > -- Tom Cato Amundsen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> GNU Solfege - free eartraining, http://www.gnu.org/software/solfege/ _______________________________________________ Lilypond-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
