Joerg generally doesn't want to have anything to do with Windows, but that's ok by me. I build avrdude for Windows on a semi-regular basis, and I use MinGW/MSYS. I used to build it on Cygwin, but I never like the final program linking to the Cygwin DLL because of redistribution problems. That's why over time it was moved to build under MinGW/MSYS. I'm sorry if the documentation didn't really reflect that. _______________________________________________ avrdude-dev mailing list avrdude-dev@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/avrdude-dev
