ok Heres the complication: Due to the stupidness of the FAT(32) and possibly NTFS file systems, Configure.in will overwrite configure.in and will lead to some complications when running `make config'.
heres what I did: I decompressed it in Linux and changed the file Configure.in to konfigure.in. I then went through all the Makefiles and replaced Configure with konfigure. No change of code was necessary in any case. The code will still compile successfully under *nix, although for Cygwin the bind port I put on the site will be needed as it puts a library into the Cygwin libraries that is missing. Its all pretty simple. Thus it wouldn't be difficult to port 2.10.12 (unless things have changed that cygwin doesn't support) Once I get around to it, I'll begin porting other versions. P.S. Thanx for finding that counter bug. I'll see about fixing it right away. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Isomer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Aaron Mason" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, June 01, 2002 10:43 PM Subject: Re: [Coder-Com] Re: i got it > > ok > > > > heres the site: http://darkie.lyximer.net/ircu2cyg/ > > > > I'm fascinated by the amount of work you must have put into this to get > it to work under windows.
