hej!
why dont you use Visual C++?
ensure the header files are all imported. output to 386 assembler
then use a 386->68k convertor.. :)) then use 68k compiler..
then you have a PURE windows environment.. :> (of course it
is probably bad - microsoft for god sake).
you can download one from here:
ftp://x2ftp.oulu.fi/pub/msdos/programming/lang/8668-101.zip
cheers.
az.
