You can't convince me, because it's not ;-) Let's be clear: it's a kludge to get decent compile times using the MinGW compiler. Let's also be clear: compile times are better for you, but not significantly better for me. Uniting the scripts is a different issue. I'm sure that it's not beyond the wit of man to modify development/Win32/packaging/build_lyxwin.sh so that there are both static and dynamic routes. Usage: sh build_lyxwin.sh static '1.3.7pre9' or sh build_lyxwin.sh dynamic '1.3.7pre9' where '1.3.7pre9' is an optional extra (as now). -- Angus
