Ah, most cool ... Is there (will there be?) some sort of DLL that ppl can download as well, instead of having to build it? My goal over the next several weeks (or less) is to have it so that if libapr is installed under Unix, it will detect and build with its API, which is why I was wondering about the tarballs ... be nice if similar could be done under Windows itself :) Thanks for the info so far though ... at least I know I'm not going down a deadend path :)
