Comment(by nthiery):
Hi!
I just obtained the following with gap3 on winxp1 (win XP + cygwin host in
the Sage build farm):
{{{
gap> W := CoxeterGroup("E",8);
CoxeterGroup("E",8)
gap> Size(W);
696729600
}}}
For the record: I did not have Sage installed, so I did not try directly
the spkg. Instead, I built and ran it by hand, using something like:
{{{
tar xvf gap3-jm2.spkg
cd gap3-jm2/src/src
make ibm-i386-linux-gcc
cd ..
cp src/gap.exe bin
<EDIT bin/gap.sh>
bin/gap.sh
}}}
In bin/gap.sh, I set GAP_PRG=gap.exe, and downgraded GAP_MEM=512m to
GAP_MEM=64m (otherwise I was getting an error Gasman: can not get memory
for the initial workspace).
So I assume that it should be easy to adapt the spkg to also work on
windows+cygwin once sage will be more publicly available there (windows 7
still to be tested).
