Re: [Libfoundation-users] Conversion of a WO 4.01 NT program to use GNU LibFoundation

[Helge H. <hel...@sk...>]

Hi Mike,

I suggest that you try gstep-base (www.gnustep.org) for compilation on 
Windows. This has much better support for Windows now than 
libFoundation. It's probably easiest to use Cygwin as the basis (like WO 
NT ;-)
Also be sure to subscribe gnustep-discuss to ask gstep-base/NT related 
questions.

Greetings
  Helge
