#1 New compile options

[Anonymous]

I don't have MSVC at the moment. I understand the
problem with getting Borland's compiler to build...
it's preprocessor doesn't like function parameter
defines passed as parameters to #defines... However,
alternative compile environments may include:

Cygwin - http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin
(cygwin may be associated with Mingw32 - but using
fixming.bat does not immediately provide make
functionality - no MING32 export )

lcc - http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~lcc-win32/
(somewhat uses gcc's inline assembly...)

Alternative assembler -
NASM - http://www.web-sites.co.uk/nasm/
(has patches for the Unix LCC version to use this as
the backend assembler)

IMHO the best alternative to MSVC is MinGW32, whose version
1.0 has just been released.
Cygwin is supported since 3.9.37 WIP in MinGW32
compatibility mode.
It would be nice to have a fully functional Borland C++
Builder port: maybe can you help us ?
