Does anyone know if chicken/gdbm works on windows? I have an app using

GDBM works on Windows. However, I had to jump thru some hoops. The binary installer doesn't install "gdbm-dll.h", which I had to copy from the source. Also, the Chicken compiler doesn't like pathnames with spaces on Windows. I copied the gdbm files from the default install location - C:\Program Files\GnuWin32 - to my mingw directories. (For some reason a shortcut - C:\GnuWin32 - wasn't seen by the compiler. If MSVC is used then will probably work. I use MinGW.)

Best Wishes,
