Re: Antw: [Dev-C++] DevCpp, Cygwin and DevPacks of GUI Toolkits

[<Ech...@ne...>]

A DevPak file is a *.tar.bz2 file with it's extension renamed to .DevPak

I don't believe there is any documentation on the format of the package,
but it is fairly easy to "reverse engineer".  I have made a DevPak 
(http://echempel.freezope.org/projects-fall2002/SigCpp-DevPak/libsigcpp-1.1.DevPak) 
in this manner.  I would suggest downloading a few existing DevPaks, 
renaming them to ____.tar.bz2, un-packing them, and then replacing the 
contents with your desired contents.  After this all that is needed is to 
repackage and rename the ___.tar.bz2 file to ___.DevPak.  

Hope this is helpful, if you need any more help feel free to contact me.
