Windows XP and MS Visual C++ free toolkit

[Arnold W. <awi...@te...>]

Hello Salvador,

After a long detour, I've got a bit more time to work on SETedit.

Meanwhile, for other reasons I had to upgrade to XP Home edition and 
have now downloaded the MS free C++ toolkit and am ready to give it a 
shot at compiling SETedit. As it turns out the toolkit does have a 
debugger, although I have not had any chance to put it through its paces 
yet.

I have downloaded the latest snapshots and have also installed the BCC 
W32 version on the XP machine, and it does run with some problem when 
trying to save some configurations. I haven't spent much time sorting it 
out as I'd like to compile it fresh so I can debug it.

While I can't say I have kept up with the latest developments, I have 
noticed that there are some changes in the configuration and the 
documentation with reference to confignt.pl, however looking it over it 
talks about djgpp, so, I thought it best to ask first, what the best way 
to try and compile under both BCC and the toolkit might be.

I have tried under BCC55, but it does not find the compiler include 
directories; I'll start work on sorting that out meanwhile.

Any suggestions on trying the toolkit would be welcome. I do have some 
background with Perl, so I'm hoping we can sort out the configuration 
without too much problem.

TIA,

Arnold
