Duly noted. Is it known not to build with Metrowerks, or has it just not
been tried yet? I also have MSVC++, but Metrowerks has AMD extensions and
(with the upcoming release) Athlon extensions. Woohoo!
not tried yet. i have absolutely no idea how close the metrowerks makefile and
c runtime header formats are to vc++; that will make all the difference in how
easy it will be to port.
if you're not familiar with these things i'd strongly suggest vc++.
Note to self: learn about this "compiler" thing I keep hearing about..

In order to save my hands, I am cutting back on my mail. I also write
as succinctly as possible -- please don't be offended. If you send me
mail, you _will_ get a response, but please be patient, especially for
XEmacs-related mail. If you need an immediate response and it is not
apparent in your message, please say so. Thanks for your understanding.
