Please, test and report. > Hello, I have downloaded the tarball and while the installation on Linux was fast and smoothless, I am running into severe problems on Windows: - The directory tmp does not exist when I untar the tarball (for some reason I do see a _file_ tmp, but that is not in the tarball itself) This directory is necessary to hold the copies of the sources when making the Windows version (with MSC). - When I make it manually, I get the following errors: - plplotP.h refers to "unistd.h" - that does not exist on Windows/MSC - plcore.c refers to a symbol BUILD_DIR, but I can not find where that is coming from (I have not inspected libtool though) It also wants to use the function getcwd(), but changes are that on Windows/MSC this does not exist (at least not under this name, or in the header files) I will try to work around these problems and see what else comes up.
