Guppy doesn't compile on Windows. Pretty much full-stop. It uses static references to DLL functions, which on Windows is not allowed. I've tried patching it to remove such things, and I finally got it to compile, only to have it go "boom!" in actual use. If you can get it to work, certainly post something so that I can cheer.
