Windows only. However, come version 3.x I do plan on porting it to linux/freebsd finally (just so people will stop bugging me about it :). However, this does you no good whatsoever, as I have tenatively scheduled myself to work on 3.x around the Winter of 2002. (If any one wants to send me an old Solaris machine I suppose I could port it to that as well. Haven't the slightest use for one otherwise.) >I'm using CF 4.5 SP2 right now, but will also be upgrading that in a month >or so (either to 5 or MX, still up in the air). So far MX seems to me, as they say, *evil*. Nice new features, but some of the cirtical old ones just plain don't work. :) --min ______________________________________________________________________ Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
