I created my own makefile (cause I could Configure to work with MingW). It seems gettext and friends requires a hardcoded compile-time GNULOCALEDIR value. And no leading driveletter is allowed.

Maybe because the original version is so crappy. I've learned to mistrust any software originated by Germans (Ulrich Drepper made gettext AFAIK). All software suck sometimes. But GNU/FSF software tend to suck much more. I only regret I've wasted time on this crap. > > 2. set $LYNX_LOCALEDIR=g:\MingW32\share\locale > > I don't know what this is.
