Hello! I have removed the code for native Windows support. This code has been broken for years and nobody cared to fix it.
Successful projects that have good Windows ports usually have a well developed infrastructure for portability. Most of them are written in high-level languages (Mozilla, Qt) or have libraries specifically written for portability (Apache). Most importantly, those projects have volunteers who care about the Windows port and quality of code. I don't see such people here. A lot of conditional operators were polluting the code. The code itself was, according to the comments, a big hack. The code pollution was especially notable in the code for file operation, which is still very buggy. On the other hand, mc works under Cygwin quite well. It can already replace Far for some uses. I think some improvements of the Cygwin port would be more useful than fixing the native port that never worked well. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ Mc-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel
