Re: No Guile on Windows? (was: My Guile Hacker Handbook)

My mistake: gnucash uses MinGW-w64. The gnucash lead developer has a few patches to successfully compile guile on MinGW-w64. It would be great if these patches were taken upstream and a CI pipeline enabled for testing. Otherwise gnucash for windows will always need to catch up, and is at severe ri
