Yes, power shell has improved, and it does support wildcarding, but I'm not sure how to use power shell instead of cmd... Also, I'm using mingw-w64 as I have a 64 bit machine. I'm pretty sure this is slightly different than mingw. Do you think this has a factor? I never had to go searching for pkg-config...

And cmake has produced a visual studio solution file that I can open. Now the challenge has been getting that to build. Though I think i have solved that problem (I had to set a variable in CMakeCache that would cause bin2res to be natively built). I have also tried getting cmake to generate a Makefile, but I could not manage that unfortunately. >>> > >>> > Hopefully this will all work out and allow windows developers to join the project! >>> > >>> > Sam >>> > >>> > >>> >>> Interested in reading your notes. :) >>> >>> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ >>> Dive into the World of Parallel Programming!
