You can buy a set of libraries from a comany called Bristol
Technology (I think, it's over 8 years since I used it!) that
allows
you to build Windows software on a Unix box. A bit like cygwin
Errm, What'd be the difference between this and WINE ?
WINE lets you run windows programs but not develop them.
ie. WINE doesn't include all the header files etc
Bristol supplies the development libraries needed to build
and run native Windows apps on Unix not just the DLLs needed
to run software built on Windows
Note that for Python programs for Windows these are not needed
they are only for programs/DLLs written in C/C++. I suspect Python
code using the Win32 extensions or ctypes would work OK under
WINE.
