Judging by what I can find with web searches, it seems that all the modern popular compilers define _WIN32 on ms-windows (and presumably _WIN64 if the system is 64bit). Have my searches told me wrong? _______________________________________________ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
