You still can. There's nothing stopping the desktop from popping up the document in the viewer after it's plucked the home URL. The text widget in GTK+ seemed much more capable. > Okay, when I look at Makefile.in I see > CPPFLAGS = @CPPFLAGS@ -DPLUCKER_VERSION="@VERSION@" > -DPLUCKER_CONFIG_DIR="@sysconfdir@" -DSYS_CONFIG_FILE_NAME="pluckerrc" > -DUSER_CONFIG_FILE_NAME=".pluckerrc" -DFILE_SEPARATOR_CHAR_S="/" > -DOS_SECTION_NAME="posix" > > So, I just set each define when I compiled with VC.

The configure script in the top-level directory takes Makefile.in and replaces configure variables like @sysconfdir@ with the appropriate value. > What would it produce for these defines? On Unix, it would typically be /usr/local/lib, or perhaps /usr/local/share/plucker/. On Windows, it would be whatever path you keep the system-wide .ini file in. > I'm assuming that if you have plucker stuff in a > different spot than me, I couldn't just take a copy of your binary and use > it on my system (assuming same platforms) since some things seem to be hard > coded in (like sysconfdir).

The installation process on Windows should determine the correct value for sysconfdir (I don't really have a clue as to what that would be on Windows), and create a Makefile for the tools/unpluck directory which has the right value substituted in. > I think I found a bug (at least on Windows) in unpluck.c where we are > opening the file in function plkr_OpenDBFile.

Wish I had a Windows machine to test your viewer distribution on!
