Re: [Dev-C++] converting .lib to .a

[<cg...@wo...>]

It's said that mv .lib .a should do it. But if you see at the command 
help, it's just like renaming the file.
Other say that you shall use reimp (I believe it's in mingwutils, see 
www.mingw.org).
But it is also said that MSVC and MinGW use coff format. Borland uses 
OMF, and reimp, would be for use over borland's libs.
Anyway, you can try either way.
