No, you can do it on linux too. Christian Weiske did that for pear at some point.

This thread took a unexpected turn, as if people are under the impression we are dropping CHM or Windows boxes. That is not the case. The Windows box at OmniTI was however decommissioned a while ago as they no longer had space for it. Yoshinari Takaoka mumumu@ took over the job and has a server building the CHMs regularly since and they are then published on the rsync box just like we always have. -Hannes -- PHP Webmaster List Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
