Re: Innosetup binaries for 21.5.32 and later

Vin had made an experimental 21.5.34 innosetup build for me, back in 2014. I have been using it since. I have not seen any issues yet, other than that paren-highlighting does not seem to work. Would it be possible to fix this, and release an official 21.5.34 beta innosetup build ? There was one more request from me at the time - to dust off the build instructions for a native X86 build using free tools (including free versions of Microsoft tools), so that people can download and build binaries easily. May I raise the same request again ? Thanks a lot. -Biswajit ________________________________ From: Vin Shelton <acs(a)xemacs.org&gt; To: Biswajit Khandai <b_khandai(a)yahoo.com&gt; Cc: XEmacs developers <xemacs-beta(a)xemacs.org&gt; Sent: Thursday, November 6, 2014 11:44 AM Subject: Re: Innosetup binaries for 21.5.32 and later Dear XEmacs Developers, I recently got a large roundtuit dropped in my lap (my startup company imploded), so I've spent a few days working on XEmacs native Windows setup kits.

Your assumption is correct, but I am the only someone who builds these kits. I will try to make a setup kit for every release, but it is difficult for me to know how much time I will have for making setup kits in between releases. > However, if that assumption is wrong, I would like you to know that a heck > of a lot of people use xemacs on Windows - maybe you underestimate the > number of such people. Dear Biswajit - thank you for your kind words. They certainly made me feel like my efforts in this area have been well worthwhile. I have re-made setup kits for 21.4.22, 21.5.34 and 21.4 latest and 21.5 latest. I will upload them this afternoon to ftp.xemacs.org. I will be sending a small patch to XEmacs-patches to work around a couple of difficulties building without TLS on native Windows. I have not attempted to build with TLS as of yet. - Vin
