Re: [Mingw-users] Good GUI debugger for MinGW?

[ralph e. <ral...@gm...>]

Not the source just any modification that requires a patch for it to 
work where it normally would not,
the source code is ofc required. Ok so i need to upload unmodified 
source alongside the binaries + if any patch is required for building it 
that to. Ok got that. Just bugs me that i cannot redistribute a working 
program untill i have a working patch :S since that might be some way 
off (im not that good with autotools) but maybe someone can pitch in
now that i proven itcl/itk3.4 can be built with mingw64 and help do the 
nessesary changes to tcl.m4.
