Mark Hammond and Sean True both said they had an ocrad.exe executable built
under cygwin.  (Hopefully it doesn't require cygwin runtime?)

AFAIK, it will require cygwin1.dll, unless a change is also made (it is in the attached patch) to compile with -mno-cygwin. This seems to run fine on my machine, without any of the cygwin DLLs (they are installed, of course, but shouldn't be accessible outside of a Cygwin shell).

Was the only
change you made to the source the "std::fprintf" -> "fprintf" replacement?

Two of these, plus the Makefile.in as above.

Ocrad is GPL'd, so all we have to do to make it available is also distribute the modified source. If you can stick the .exe file somewhere and let me know if there are any Windows version restrictions, I'll put together the requisite modified Ocrad source distribution and place both the distribution and the executable on the SpamBayes website for Windows users to try out.

Patch is attached.  .exe is at:

http://tangomu.com/ocrad.exe

I have no idea about Windows version restrictions. My assumption would be it will run on any version from Win95 to WinXP (no idea about Vista).
