Sometimes it helps to have more than one OS on your computer. For Open Source projects the Windows version is often late in coming and harder to install. For example on Slackware Linux all the bits and pieces needed for compiling Scribus come with the system, the compiler, the linker, the QT4 libraries and so on. It is a fair amount of work to assemble and install these on other Linux flavors, and even more work on MSWIn and OS X. So those who live on the bleeding edge, like me, find that Linux is a more comfortable way to go. The wiki will most likely have some useful information on installing and updating an svn version on MSWin. I just prefer the easier path. -- John Culleton, Wexford Press "Create Book Covers with Scribus" $5.95 at http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html Free eps format barcode: http://www.tux.org/~milgram/bookland/
