Yes, just go into the wxLua/build/msw and open wxLua.dsw and build. I
like to use Debug/Release Multilib.
I just tried it and I get all kinds of warnings about functions
changing signatures... I dunno what this is all about, but I think the
build settings have changed and it crashes immediately when run with
no useful backtrace. I'll look into it tomorrow night.

See above, I tried to compile it for you, but something's gone wrong.
It runs great in Linux though. :) Seriously, it's probably something
small, like a compiler switch, but it's not immediately obvious to me
what it is.

That does stink, sorry.

Soon... we're very close to really getting all the build stuff
working. It's a shame that as much work goes into making it build
cross-platform as goes into actual programming.
